Final conclusion on RAS/networking woes is that I need the RRAS snap-in from the 'Adminpak' off the Windows 2000 server CD. This allows routing to be set up (as well as RAS). I think it is ok to use on Win2k professional.

I created some subfolders on the Intellimail inbox and created message rules to move messages from the different accounts into the folders. Works nicely and resolves my earlier criticism. Outlook Explorer might be able to do this, don't know, don't care.

Gym: did full routine, nearly full reps on everything except the fly press. Should think about increasing difficulty, except on dumbbell press where I nearly did myself an injury with the 15's.

Registered DayNotez and Bonsai as DayNotes is such a good diary program and Bonsai is a good way of making notes on the palm.

Still can't get PC to allow laptop or palm to connect to the router. It worked for a few seconds then stopped working. I don't want to type any rude words but it really is tempting sometimes.

Also PC has started randomly locking up. I've pulled the USB 2 card as plug and play saw it today and hastled me for drivers.

Something I forgot to mention on thursday (and editing old entries seems like cheating) is that I tried Intellimail. Looks like a good functional email program, virtually an Outlook Express clone but with more tools for creating flashy effects in your messges: fancy backdrops, animated emoticons etc. I will stick with it, the email notifications are good.

I have 4 email accounts on it and, like outlook express, it munges all received mail into one inbox. I would prefer Mozillas way of having a tree with branches for each account. I got fed up with Mozilla because it had touble cancelling it's hourglasses.
