Patrick,
Working for IBM I'm a bit wary of the disclaimer at the bottom of the e-mail. In order to
avoid
encroaching IBM's standards on the community (we use Notes and its pretty ugly) I just use
my
private e-mail account. Is that an option for the BEA folks ? Since this activity is not
really
Corporate sponsored or controlled a personal account makes a lot of sense.
