At least my mistake is not as bad as the one that people who are try to run
Linux on a MS server with the expectation of good results are making.
Mine will go away with the end of this email assault but theirs will not.
Of course I could have missed something over the last five years but as I
recall MS spent considerable amount of time in a Federal Court charged with
Monopolistic practices. And! If I recall correctly one of the principle
charges against MS was that when they wrote code it was never complete until
their opponents software refused to function correctly.
Then there are those on the list who assume that since Hot Mail doesn't say MS
Hot Mail that it is not MS software or some such or that MS did not spend
time in court. I know that this is true because they keep making posts
glorifying Hot Mail and trashing the Linux server.
In short sorry for picking the wrong word at 4:00 AM when the spell checker
said I either typed the correct incorrectly - very high probability - or
could not spell it correctly to begin with - low probability.
Thanks
Frank
