I created an acronym, SWEET, and a Web page, for requests like this.
    http://sweet.nodns4.us/

Use and enjoy, I hope it helps keep your frustration level down. I'm
also hoping to help educate posters such as Adrian (who probably
won't see this, unfortunately, since I do not send it through GMX
facilities, and thus fail some spam tests.)

Suggestions are welcome (see .sig or send to rob0 at the parent
domain.) Remember, the goal is to keep the page short and ... yes,
sweet.
