My apologies, I know I have seen your e-mails, but have not replied. I have
been beyond overwhelmed with life and work this year and the last few months
have been the worst.

As long as you are not allowing others to post using an account I've provided,
I do not care how you access the spool. My only other concern would be
excessive consumption of resources with XPAT, but I can't say I've noticed any
issues, though I haven't logged into the spool server directly in probably 6
months.

To anyone else who may be reading and have e-mailed me requesting an account -
I'm sorry I have not replied. Things will begin to slow down for me soon, so
try sending me another request, but do not be upset if I don't respond
quickly.
