IBMers have to register for the Internet gateway, but no special permission is required. 2. The postmaster is *extremely* good about answering mail. I'm amazed that you didn't receive a reply. Are you sure the mail arrived there? 3. There have been no layoffs in IBM in over 50 years. IBM is asking for voluntary retirement and relocation from some employees, many whom are enjoying the opportunity to bridge to retirement. IBM has said that some lines of business may resort to layoffs if their lines of business can not be profitable otherwise. -- Steve Hultquist Open systems and networking specialist Ski to live, live to ski ISSC Boulder
