Will do, but I have logged in to several STadel boards and still haven't
changed my opinion.  Maybe the reason you find them more friendly now is
that you've had 6 months of experience!

OK, I'll buy that part.  But you can't leave messages "TO" a specific person.

Based on the current usage, I'd have to set up 4 for downloading and 1 for
messaging.  But, I am philosophically opposed to that -- I think it would
reduce message traffic.  Some people call mainly to download but also read
the messages.  And messages are my primary reason for having the board.

Hmmm... maybe I should go with STadel... it would cut down the downloaders
:-)
