Andy - Both things have happened. Usually, nobody but me gets the group
email. But twice during the present class cycle, a couple of people have
received it.

I'm sure the emails are correct, because class members get the individual
emails, and I copy the addresses for those right off the group email list.

Trying individual Bcc emails to class members, with my address in the "To"
field, is a good suggestion. I'll wait until after the next class though,
so I don't stretch their patience too far.

Thanks again - Bill
