First of all.. My name is Eddie Albert, not the other way around....
Military folks (who operate Mail gateways) twist our names for the sake
of "organization" <rolling my eyes>.

Mentioning people by name on the list would violate a trust and get
someone expelled from the EMC VAR program.

To sum up what I was told "there are other solutions that are less
expensive and more reliable". I did not ask for stats or verification.

Off-Topic: I suspect our spam filter has become over zealous again. You
say you attempted to email me, what happened? Try again if it does not
work, I will contact my mail gateway admin, WITH A STICK TO THE HEAD I
will contact him. /ALE
