I tried the link specified and it hovered OK and opened the mail screen OK.
However when I hit the "Send" button in NS 4.7 I got the following error
mesage "An error occured while sending mail.. The server responded: relaying
to <buffys97(at)one.net> prohibited by Administrator.    Please check the
recipients and try again"   Nothing on the pages code would seem to have
genrated to messages received from your friend - maybe it's another
manifestation of A-Oh-Hells problems???
