Hi, It's all in the messages you must not have read yet. Maybe you're behind because of the holiday? About three of us have presented the instructions. But here you go: 1. The email address is wsmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx2. To get an email containing one or more definitions for a single word,senda blank email to that address with the command "define" and the word you want defined in the subject line, like this: define difficult 3. If you want a synonym from its thesaurus program, put in the subject line: synonym difficult If you read on, you'll find people discussing whether or not they like the definitions provided by this service. But try it out and see if it suits you. Hope this helps. happy New Year.

Example: define harmony See? It's just a typical type of command you send to a listserv or something of that sort. First comes the request for what action you want performed (define), then a space, then the word you want defined. Then, without typing anything in the message area, just send the message. Hope this helps. Happy New year. your----- Original Message ----- From: "Linda Parent" <mslparent25@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, December 30, 2006 4:56 PM Subject: RE: e-mail dictionary and Jaws Hi, I'm a bit confused on how to use this. You type the word in the subject and it tells you "define" and then space. So does this mean I type the word I'm looking for and then just space?
