Thanks for that Rexx. I'd figured it out but that's useful as a reminder. All I have to do now is remember to empty it regularly...

Hi Andy,
Martin Poulter just mentioned this to me as well and advised the
comment was
from him. I was then able to search for his name and found it in the
spam

Thanks,
Stevie
