Hi Tom,

Nor did I want to loose the benefits of email or want to change. This new forum 
is not something that happened recently. Mario has been working on this for a 
long time. Since last May I kept trying to think of ways to have it both ways 
and asking Mario about these ideas. Mario has looked at a wide variety of 
options and selected software that is very popular and has millions of users.

I can't say for sure but it appears to me that Mario delayed launching the new 
forum for months after he has chosen UBB Threads because he too wanted to 
satisfy those, like me, that prefer email messages. It didn't work out that way 
but that does not mean that it never will. I trust that Mario will keep looking 
for solutions.

I and a few others will learn to live with the new forum in spite of not having 
email. Those who did not like email but went to the Yahoo site will find the new 
forum a big improvement. A few dozen IMatch users who did not visit the Yahoo 
site often may now visit the new forum more often. A few dozen users who insist 
on email or nothing, are out of the loop. At least for now. Such is life.

Richard
