I'll test it, but that file has not been changed since my initial setup
over two years ago. Hence why I responded that it was OK when you
suggested I check it.
I say that but, the last upgrade involved SA, ClamAV, MailWatch, and
MailScanner on three machines in one night. It is entirely possible I
did that.

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?
Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
