Now if you are looking for something to do perhaps you might like to try
one of the applications above.
In accordance with my own belief in privacy I have not kept a list of
who mailed me what, I also have removed the list of names from the sent
folder as to who I communicated with during this process.
If I did not send a thank you to anyone, please consider yourself thanked.
