I really must tip my hat to Syd Weinstein and the rest of the ELM development group. I follow this group regularly and I'm always impressed with the response time to questions. No matter how big or small, simple or complex a question, an answer always follows (maybe not the answer we want, but none the less..). A perfect example is a glitch in PL7 for elm2.3 was fixed with PL8 and released only a day or two later. I can honestly say, we get better service for ELM through the net, than we do over the phone from most of our vendors (and you know what they charge!).

Jean-Pierre, You are right, we do forget to thank those that have been working behind the scenes for us. I think ELM is the best Unix environment mailer I have seen. I wish I had the time to contribute to enhancing it. Thanks again, one-of-many

In my recent posting about problems with patch7, I didn't mean to slam Syd or Elm. I hadn't tried patch8, yet, so I didn't know that it corrected patch7 problems, and I didn't want someone else to have to try to back out patch7 like I did. I understand now that patch8 corrected the problems. Thanks!

The sentence you quoted from me had three phrases, anchored around the verbs "forget", "applaud", and "want". Which two comprise the "*both*" of your message? :-) Jean-Pierre Radley HIGH-Q jpr@jpradley CIS: 72160,1341
