This is true, however, "I'm a newbie to email, and I can't be bothered to
read manuals" is not a useful post either. Why should I waste my unpaid-for

Peter was, at least, pointing this newbie in the direction of the manuals,
and pointing out that less than 5 minutes spent with the manuals would have
shown up Izak to be a) confusing, and b) plain wrong.
