Dear Stephen,

Thanks for your help in tracking down this problem.
Please note, that although GReAT has advanced pretty much from being a
pure research tool, it has not yet reached the quality reqs of
commercial off-the-shelf product. As such, these kind of problems might
occur. We hope that it does not discourage you from using GReAT in your
research. We will fix this bug, and create a new release soon. Should
you encounter any other problems with GReAT, please feel free to ask on
this list.

Thanks,
Attila

PS: Subscribers might have noticed my several posts to the list
yesterday. There were apparently some problems with our SMTP server.
Sorry folks!
