Hi all,

Suppose as I started all this I'd better tell you what happened. I did
have 158.152.1.222 (demon-du) as my smtp address. When I swopped to
post.demon.co.uk, my dialup script and motd, which had previously been
invisible, started appearing.


Anyway, thanks for the help, things seem to be working fine apart from
difficulties accessing the Timeserver.... so it's nice you guys got
onto the subject, spooky or what? 

Just driftin' along,

Ali.
