Hi Mag,
You probably know that all the "names" you use on the internet
(like "www.zazzle.com") get converted to a numeric address (like a phone
number). Zazzles "phone number" is 70.42.16.130 sp you could surf to your
pages by using this number instead of the name:-
<http://70.42.16.130/TamarMag>
Sending mail is very similar. The name after the '@' has a "phone number"
associated. If I look up 'yahoo.com' in DNS (like Yellow Pages for phone
numbers) it tells me:-

==============================================
it gives me a list of suitable numbers I could use (in case some of them are
too busy I can try another). Each of these "know" who "Tamarmag510" is and
will hold onto any emails I send until your Outlook (or other Mail Client)
logs on and asks for any mail they are holding for you.
(Probably more than you ever wanted to know!!!).
Cheers
Deri
