did you see this blurb that appears after you send mail?

"Note: Your e-mail will not be delivered immediately. Up to two days will pass before your e-mail reaches the destination."

guess there's a price to pay even on a free site.

I'm glad that thats what you were looking for.

P.S. Haven't heard much from you for quite a while -- Welcome back.

Thanks. I was busy moving back to the States and then I got really busy moving into a new house, doing yardwork--hated that at first but it was pretty satisfying and fun in the end.

PW and everyone,
had a look at the anonymizer, it's a good example of what I was saying about using CGI, below is a section of HTML code which you could cut and past into a new file, which allows you to use the anonymizer service without logging onto their webpage, you just open the HTML file from your hard drive, or if you have a custom start page stored on your HDD anyway (which I do) you could just copy the section in between the <FORM> tags and paste it into your own start page.

I realise I might be aiming above some peoples heads, I can explain a bit better if needed. The only reason you would use this is if you a) don't like logging onto their page because it takes a while to load, b) have a custom start page, which you wish to be able to send your anon email from or c) you're nerdy like me, and feel tricky having gizmos like this on your computer hehe.

******** begin copy and paste -->

<-- end copy and paste ********

just had a quick preview of what that'll look like, it's not pretty, but it will work, hope this is useful to someone, and I'm not just wasting space, hehe.
