SC - OFFTOPIC Technical Note

[Ragnar Ketilsson]

hmm, aol admitted to me last week that they were having a problem with thier
mail server....and so is gte.   I have had fits with both lately....
hopefully the gte problems will be solved when they upgrade to a new system
sometime in the next two weeks...
aol, I am sure is a lost cause.    They only grudginly admit to errors or
mistakes or system problems....

just so you know it is not all contained in servers coming out of ansteorra.
I am on listserves of several kingdoms and tho most of the dupes and blank posts
seem to come from ansteorra [I could make a joke, but then since we in trimaris
have to meet you guys on the lyst field in march, it might be wise to
refrain......grins]  and gte does serve that area...........shrug....
hugs toa ll
