Well, I can get the Personal Messages all right - but the "help" page is "Connection Refused", which is highly unusual when the connection to the forum is working OK.

I haven't had any trouble with the PM's, but I do get a "page cannot be displayed" for the Help forum. Have you tried accessing through the different servers, Greg? Ragtime, shorty, and I don't know if dharma is still around or not.

I tried to PM you greg, and the first two times it said there was no such member; the third time it decided you did exist.

So I know the message was sent (eventually), but haven't a clue if it arrived.

i saw it had arrived Snuffy, but couldnt open it. Shortly after that I couldnt even get at the list of PM's. think it must have been your letter that broke it! perhaps it was unduly offensive?

I've heard a gentleman defined as someone who never gives offence - unintentionally!

greg, your cookie may have been corrupted (by Snuffy's actions?), so it may help to delete your cookie and then reset it. I had to do this once for a similar problem. Won't do any harm, anyway.

Hey Noreen, I may have offended plenty of people, but I don't think I can claim credit for corrupting any!

Got one from Jeri, very nice too. Greg, I'm holding myself even as I type. Why don't we all send a random member a personal message just for the sake of it..fol de rol !
