    Sorry I think I got it now was using Entourage 2004 and it was sending it as a top message due to a misconfigured setting

    Wow, that's a name from the past! Of all of the old legacy apps to
    continue using, WHY THAT ONE? All of my Mac users breathed a collective
    sigh of relief when Microsoft rolled out Outlook for Mac.

    Or, maybe that was my team supporting it that I heard. :)

    Well I have a copy of outlook 2011 along with office 2011 but to my surprise
    it doesn't have Usenet support... Plus a Core 2 Duo is too slow for most web based tasks (i.e I have a early 2009 iMac running Leopard 10.5.8) so I kind
    of have it set up as a time capsule from 2009 most of what I do on the web needs a 3rd gen dual core or 2nd gen quad core processor or later to do well and I have a XPS 8700 running Windows 8.1 (doesn't have a SSD otherwise I
    would be running 10 if it wasn't for the horrible boot up times and the
    frozen desktop when booted up) with a i7-4790 and a GTX 1060 with 16GB of
    DDR3 memory and a ThinkPad T470 and a 2014 Mac mini (which I use for downgrading iOS devices)

    Again I have a T470 thinkpad and a xps 8700 so no need to get even newer computers

    I had an old dell xps with an intel i7 3rd gen, but it died after an
