Setup, under the Web category looks to be a good start. Maybe it shouldn't be hidden in such a contrived place.

Please do not include email addresses in plain text in the body of the text.

I guess you're concerned about spam harvesters ?

Yes. Your lurking skills really do need improving don't they? This comes up here regularly.


Again, PLEASE do not include email addresses in plain text in the body of the text. You just did it again with the email address of the cygwin mailing list above.

Okay, sorry, I see what you mean. Problem is, I'm forced into using this damn god-awful Micr$oft e-mail client here. It wasn't a case of what I chose to do, but a case of what Outlook was programmed to do on my behalf without asking. I don't seem to be able to find a way of configuring this behaviour out of it either. Frustrating ? you bet ! Of course, I'm sure you attack everyone else who makes a similar innocent mistake, and would never reveal anyone's e-mail address in plain text yourself.


Now we've put that one to bed, I can start working out where to find wget. Kevin.
