First of all I haven't read through your previous emails, so apologies
for that. What do you mean by "doesn't work"? What are the symptoms?
What steps have you taken to investigate the problem -- have you enabled
debug logging, and what has that told you?

If these questions are answered on a previous thread, then please follow
up on that thread, or post a link. If those threads are very extensive,
then maybe you could summarise the discussion so far.

Sorry for being unhelpful. :-)
