Re: [risk] Help again

Thanks, now that we got that cleared up, I am wondering if there is
a solution for all the Yahoo and Hotmail players who get those 
advertisements attached to the end of their outgoing email.
I happen to have accounts on those webmail sites also and I seem to
recall that they both allow you to make a signature file of your own
that will automatically get attached to outgoing email.  What you might
want to try is make a signature file with nothing but one line like this:
-- 
then when you send in your moves, hopefully it will get attached *before*
the Yahoo/Hotmail advertisements.  Also, just in case anyone is new to the
internet; if you write stuff in your signature, it is usually agreed that
you do not write a signature that is longer than four lines (5 with the
hyphens).  This is just a matter of nettiquette.  in the old days, there 
were several reasons that the 4-line signature rule was encouraged; it saved
space on filesystems and it just seemed polite.  (how would you like to 
be reading a lot of newsgroup postings with the same huge full-page signature
over and over and over again?)   well, good luck with the sig thing
