Hi. I recently posted a message asking about sound. Recently my provider
changed the mail server name, causing me to lose a lot of "precious"
e-mail. If any of you replied, could you please (if possible) re-send the
message to this new address? It is my personal home machine, and I'm sure
I should get it there without any problems. If not, I'll just check the
mail logs. Thanks.
-Jose
