Sounds intriguing Leon.  Unfortunately, I've no idea what I'd do with it, 
nothing I've done has required that sort of logic.  It's either been best 
done (integrated) on the micro, slow enough that the micro is more than 
fast enough or simple enough to be done with a few discrete gates or a 
simple PLD like a 22V10.  I'd love to hear what kind of use it got put to 
though.

BTW, (OT but others may run into similar problems) I think I've tracked 
down the problems I was having with group mail arriving wildly out of order 
and widely delayed.  There appears to be plenty of blame to spread 
around.  I think most of the delays were either sporadic overloads on the 
system or more likely something at my ISP.  In addition, however, as a 
check on this I subscribed via a different e-mail provider and changed the 
address in Yahoo.  The interface would not change the delivery address (It 
claimed it had but all the mail was sent to the previous address), Yahoo 
had to manually intervene.  I also subscribed via a third address and I've 
since unsubscribed from that one but e-mail keeps coming through on it 
anyway (even with a confirmation that I unsubscribed)
