[WriteLog] Writelog MMTTY problems

[Lloyd S. Smith]

Hi Don:

As you probably remember I was the one who accidentally stumbled on this 
fix.  You advised me that it made sense and you would put it on your web 
site.   I think that the main problem with users not finding the answers to 
common problems is that some do not even realize that your help site exists. 
What I mean by that is the new users to the Writelog reflector.  Perhaps you 
should send a message out once a month or so to advise the new members that 
your help sites exist and to let them know the URL.
