I didn't, but I do now.

I am forced to use Outlook so I forwarded the more extensive email to my
personal account so I can edit it more easily/correctly and because my
work got pretty busy.

I reverted to 1.5 to see if that would work better, it doesn't really,
so I'll try to install 1.7 in parallel when I get a chance (I have
servers doing things now so I have to let it alone for awhile).

I do appreciate all the terrific replies--I've been on the net for
awhile and this is one of the friendliest lists I've been on.
