Mary Ann, (Again, I am bouncing. I get the following message when I send directly to you: Recipient address: mbe11l@earthlink.net Reason: Remote SMTP server has rejected address Diagnostic code: smtp;550 mbe11l@earthlink.net...User unknown Remote system: dns;mx2.earthlink.net (TCP|165.166.0.27|64606|207.217.125.17|25) Actually, there wasn't anything that I miss. I believe one was a legal database and another was medical. The best one we added in my opinion is Sirs Researcher. It is getting a lot of use by my high school kids. L.
