Thanks, Ed!

The last couple of weeks, I've had to delete a good number of messages, 
since I found it impossible to keep up.

When the number reaches 500, then I just delete the lot!! (And sometimes at 
200. It depends how much time I have for going through them all!)

So that's how I missed your query and its reply.
