I found some websites still have the following footnote at the bottom of a page:
"This site is best viewed at 1024x768 screen resolution with Internet Explorer 6.0 SP2 or above."
The above footnote is absolutely not necessary. Today, people are using 19 - 22 inches LCD with 16:9 aspect ratio. Some larger monitors have 22:10 ratio. 1024 x 768 is considered as a poor resolution using the old traditional 4:3 aspect ratio.
Just take away the fucking advice and users will know how to adjust their monitors and video display to achieve the best viewing effect.

The net sure has changed over the past 15 years. I can remember when it was a pain when people designed 1024x768 sites and I only had an 800x600 display... Today though a lot of people use netbooks (800x600) and mobile devices (resolution is different depending on the device) to browse the web... If things don't look right at least the info lets the end user know that the developer was to lazy to make the site scaleable.
Thanks for putting the IPv6 email auto reply email server up, I've used it to test my configuration out.
