I saw that as well. That's where I got the idea.

I've taken Harold's script (thanks) and had someone else create a perl
script for me. It runs much faster (they know far more about perl than I
do). They are now writing a C program which will sit in the background

Actually, I was disappointed we didn't have an IP change this am. I
wanted to see how well the script and mailing performed after I installed
the script last night.
