Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There should be a separate playlist for recordings. Called, maybe, "Recordings"? or "Voice recordings" or somesuch.

Trust my rage

Found it. Thank you so much! It was a recording of my baby's heartbeat to send to my husband in Iraq. You can see the emotional value which is probably why I panicked and wasn't doing basic stuff like searching.

Limping in past 170 posts to seek the technohivemind wisdom regarding wrangling email accounts.

I have 4, each registerd/hosted by a different company.

Recently, I transfered one address from earthlink to godaddy and the entire daisy chain seems to have gone boom. Now, I'm not getting my business email at all.

Is there a service, utility or option in Outlook to get all the accounts pointed in the same direction so that I get them all in one place?

For reference, I have verizon dsl.

What can I do? whimper

It's kind of a complicated question, beej. Are all these POP accounts or are some web-only? If they're POP mail, just go into Outlook | Tools | Accounts, click on "Add" and follow the instructions. If they're domains under your control, you can usually forward the mail to one e-mail address, but each hosting company will have different instructions. Just look for "e-mail forwarding."

I know that's clear as mud.

So, does Windows XP (SP2) come with a tool that will allow me to unpartition my old 10GB drive back into a single drive?

Or should I unplug my primary drive and just use my XP install disk to format the whole drive?

Our wings are not tired

Under control panels there's something along the lines of administrator tools and in there you dig down to Disk Management and then you'll be able to reformat the drive and do whatever you need.

Damn it feels good to scrub this puppy clean.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Clean puppies are much fun.
