Guess I should have read this one first. But I read them in the order that gmail opens them. I am totally satisfied with the answer that list business and list rules are allowable content of the list to which they pertain. Thank you. Perhaps the LEMlists would be a good meeting place for those who need to complain about the other lists. The flame wars could go on there. instead of " I'll meet you after school " it will be " I'll meet you on LEMlists Group ". If that was the case my inbox would have dozens of post from that list. -- Adrian D'Alessio aka; Fluxstringer [email protected] http://www.facebook.com/FluxStringer http://www.linkedin.com /in/fluxstreamcommunications http://flux-influx.blogspot.com/ http://fluxdreams.designbinder.com/ http://twitter.com/FluxStringer http://mog.com/FluxMuse -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
