I tried to get on the list several times, but after providing all my log in
info, I got to the page where it says to go further, you need a login number
which would be sent by the server to the email address provided. In 10
attempts, freelist never returned a login number and I was not able to log
on. Several times however it did send a "welcome" message but no login
number. On the 11th attempt, it worked. However, I did not know it was
working and I had given up, when it returned a number finally after three
days.
It is very confusing when using these canned log ons to know what it is
doing and when. An accurate synopsis of the steps required from the
subscriber, a list of the expected responses from the server and rough
timeframes for these actions, would be helpful.
MSN ones are really flaky - in one list I can only sign out - to log on AND
log off.
I love the net.
I do enjoy the list AJ. Thanks!
Cheers, Jeff Dayman Waterloo Ontario Canada
