Change password with SAP MAPI

[Alon Raskin]

My Fellow Workflowers,
 
I accidently sent an email to the List which I mean to sent directly to Patrick.
I have emailed Sue to see if she can stop the mail but if she doesnt then I
would like to appologise in advance. The mail was not meant for the list and I
would never use the list for commercial purposes.
 
Appologies,
 
Alon Raskin
