I actually don't know anything about "Old.Nabble" better that someone else

help you - because I don't know.

Just ask your questions here . All of us have bad days but we won't bite your

head off. But do expect that not everyone will agree with your suggestions or

comments - that is just part of the life on any list.

You can also contact me directly if you feel that the list is not working for

some reason. I recently said I'd help any newbie if I have the time.
