New E-Mail Address
By Craig Brougher

Friends, I have changed my E-mail address due to unresolvable problems
with MSN {Microsoft Net].  I have been unable to transfer my address
book and my many kept messages as the result of their very exclusive and
incompatible E-mail system.  I strongly urge anyone using their system
to look elsewhere for a compatible program that will allow transferals
of information if you decide to change.

I was also unable to use both MSN and Netscape with two separate
servers, since MSN windows were always breaking into the other programs
and automatically changing the defaults each time it was brought up,
even after all defaults had been set by MSN itself to be my secondary
service.  And even after having stripped the machine of everything that
even sounded faintly like MSN, I occasionally get the MSN log-on connect
screen!

The funniest thing though was how it sounded like they were chewing the
rushes on the floor when I asked them to help me remove every trace of
this very unfriendly, bothersome program.  I told them, "I don't like
the way you play ball." This was after 2-1/2 hours of phone consultation
and help by three different technicians.  It was time to forget it.

Anyway, my new e-mail address is simply crb@idir.net.  I think it has
a nice "ring" to it!
