Also, say, in Outlook by Microsoft, it doesn't give you any control over
the formatting of an email. If you receive a HTML email and try and
reply, it defaults to HTML. Change the format to Plain Text, and it
strips out your quotation reply marks, the ">" symbols.

Now, i dont like being told what to do by software, having software that
doesn't work right but being told its normal and there's no problem if
it should by all accounts be doing something else.

Of course though, something I have stupidly forgotten, is the load
balancing! You might be right the first time about the coincidences.

Im still concerned about the amount of time it takes however for a
client to get an IP address, and the constant DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER
(never acknowledged for 5 seconds).

Cheers
Simon
