don,

I didn't see the hours attached to your message.  Did you use the right MIME encoding?

Yes, I know about the 3080 toroids and this is probably the main reason that I decided to look into having someone wind them for me.  And, yes, I forgot to include the full price for both sets but my glass of wine actually cost me $12.50 and my wife's glass was $9 so we still paid more for wine then the cost of winding toroids.  Of course there is postage too.
