I realize that you think you are helping me but you are not. I read this
FAQ prior to e-mailing the list. Simple-minded, perhaps, but I was
confused nonetheless. If you believe the answer to my problem lies
somewhere in this relatively long FAQ entry, perhaps you could narrow it
down since I was unable to understand it in relation to my problem.

Also, I may not have been clear but I was executing ethereal as
owner/administrator too, which mitigates part of FAQ 5.16.

Thanks,

Job
