Hi, Well the server I'm talking about is in South Africa. Needless to say that bandwith is as expensive (or more) as gold down there. The mail server belongs to an ISP I used to work for. It serves more than 40 000 customers on a 5mb pipe(local)! The international pipe is even smaller! Get the picture? ;) ciao RP

Sorry about that, but I dont have another mail account yet except one whose mail server is 12000km away and therefore too slow.
