I'm thinking of upgrading the forums so the portal accounts and forum accounts are merged, meaning you only have one account. New features include: - ability to answer posts directly from your mail client. This means that you can use the forums like a mailing list and just use Outlook or whatever for new posts or replies - cut down on spam and more secure I'm in two minds whether to do this because I know moving from a familiar format is not always the best thing. So, what are you opinions? Should we change these forums or keep them as they are? Steve White
