If you can forward the e-mail to an e-mail client (OE, Thunderbird, Pegasus…) that can save the WHOLE message as a text file, then it may be possible.

Save the e-mail as a plain text file with the extension of .uue.

This file should be able to be opened in Winzip with all the files extractable.

If you can’t get it to an e-mail client like that, you can try and copy the entire text from your Gmail acount and paste it into a blank Notepad file and save it as a uue file that way.

Then try and open it with winzip.

I think that’s a problem with environmental control of the room they are in, rather than the monitors themselves having design problems

[/indent] I don’t think it’s either. It happens to all of our monitor walls and they have cold air forced across them through specially designed racks. I also don’t think its a design flaw either, since it only happens to monitors in these monitor walls, and they contain different styles of monitors.

It’s just the heat build up that causes the bits and pieces to expand.

The studios I was talking about are production studios, where they may not be used for days or weeks at a time, and not on-air studios.

Some other things to consider. Stuff for both sides of the coin.

If you leave the PCs on over night you expose them to the risk of power surges and spikes from lightning strikes. You also leave them vulnerable to hacking. The hacking may come from someone sitting down at the workstation and getting access that way, or from across the network.

If you turn them off at night and on in the morning, then you subject the components to thermal cycles of expansion and contraction which could cause broken electrical connections eventually.

I work for a broadcaster and in out studio control rooms there are walls of monitors that are left on 24/7 because of the thermal cycling. The environment that they are in is so warm that if they are powered off, they cool off to such a degree that they cannot be powered on again unless components are replaced. And these are high end broadcast quality monitors.

So, which is better Leave them on or turn them off. 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

I personally recommend powering off at night. My PC at home gets powered off. My PC at work stays on so I can access it from home.

I agree that good e-mail can get overwhelmed by spam and these virii and I do feel for you.

I hope I didin’t seem to harsh with my earlier post. You just happened to be the second person to “say that to me” today.

I just think that the end user and not the delivering ISP needs to be responsible. I Think that the ORIGINATING ISP needs to hold the USER sending accountable, and if they don’t then the originating ISP needs to be held responsible.

Actually if they deleted them without you EXPLICITLY telling them to do it, it would be irresponsible IMHO.

What if they made a small programming error in the filter and deleted e-mail that you needed? That would be irresponsible.

So they are doing the right thing, IMHO, by not touching your e-mail.

Just to let you know, there is a member of the PMail mailing list, who I believe is a beta tester for Pegasus as well, is disecting WOW’s HTML to see where it breaks Pegasus.

He is going to try and work with David Harris, Pegasus’ author, to get it to not crash.

Hopefully it won’t take too long.

If I hear more, I’ll post it here.

Is it at every site or just here in the lounge?

If it’s just the lounge, the adds down at the bottom get refreshed every once in a while, which may be causing the click you hear.

It’s a setting somewhere that allows the page loads/reloads to be heard.

Right Click on the My Computer icon on the desktop. Select Properties.

Switch to the Advanced Tab and click the Environmental Variables button.

In the lower half you will see a section called System Variables. Scroll down that list and look for the PATH entry. Click once on it to select it, then click the edit button to edit the path.

It may even be in the “User Variables of UserName” section
