Thank you for your "Help"!!

Derek Comment on question posted by me......

First you need to learn how to use your email program properly.  Quoting
like this makes it pretty difficult to hold a conversation.

I'm not sure you'll find much support forthe level of hand-holding you're
asking for.  If people start putting [Newbie] in their subject lines, a lot
of readers will just skip the question.  Sure some will help, but this is
Linux, and there's not a lot of interest in helping people who can't help
themselves.

Given that I just told you to check the contents of a file, and run a
program IN WINDOWS, I can't see that I can make things much simpler for
you.
------------------
Well all I can say is "thank you"!! If this is the kind of support here I will move on. I can do without it! No wonder Linux has such a bad name in many circles. I had noticed a couple of "flames" here towards others asking reasonable questions and wondered about this!!

For the record I have run eMail clients for the past 15 years and currently have a 1000 member group with a monthly newsletter so I DO know how to use the program. I DID NOT put "newby" in the subject I just commented that that is what I am (in Linux!!). I was a support manager for over 20 years so DO KNOW what I'm doing with Windows and I did see the Windows part of the answer but stress again that the Linux part I did not understand (because I'm a "Newby" We all have to start somewhere!!

Don't bother to reply Derek I will move on and find some better help elsewhere!
