greeeeat

and what if one of the devices behind that phone would also be a personal "ip gateway router" (or how you call that)... you could recursively iterate as deep as your mail size allows you to... 

hope this thread will not end in a router behind a router that serves as a router seving as a router to another router which has some other routers connected...

A transistor protected by a fast-acting fuse will protect the fuse by blowing first.
