Might not be a bad idea.  I'll keep it in mind.  I would no doubt find it an 
interesting read, but I don't know if I can spare the time. :-)  I'm already on 
a couple of fairly high-volume lists (this one included) and end up just 
scanning subject lines and deleting anything that doesn't seem to be of 
interest without opening quite a few messages on many days, as it is.  But 
thanks for the suggestion.

Oh, I realized that I could probably do that.  But I already figured doing so 
would probably cause more problems than it would solve by putting the interface 
back the way I like it (sorry, but I'm just not crazy about having to go 
somewere other than the application that I'm running to configure it).  So I 
guess I'll just have to get used to it. :-)
