No problem.  I haven't even tried logging into a gui yet.  This will be a mail
only server so I haven't even installed a gui.  All admin will be done through
a remote ssh connection.  But when I do this is a good tip.  

Time with the family is always a good thing.  I make sure to stay away from my
email when I am on vacation as well, otherwise I get some stern looks from my
wife :-)
