Welcome to GnuCash, Eric! I can't respond to your accounting question, but here are some pointers for your mailing-list questions.

It looks like you found the correct mailing list address, "[email protected]" in the instructions that are automatically appended to every message the serer sends out. If your mail program offers "Reply List" to a particular message, that's what you should use. Otherwise, you may need to copy/paste the "[email protected]" address manually to your outgoing message's To or Cc field. One important point: If you receive messages in a digest, you'll also need to (a) edit the subject line, by copy/pasting the subject of the individual message you're referring to, and (b) Delete all the text of all the messages you're _not_ referring to, as well as any parts of the remaining message that are not needed to give context to your answer. > I follow the instructions at the end: > "Please remember to CC this list on all your replies." > "You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All." > But only end up with "[email protected]" and get mildly chastised for > not replying properly. What does "mildly chastised" mean? For future reference, always, always include the _exact_ text of error messages when asking for help with a problem. Reporting a problem is a lot like giving testimony in court: tell us what you did and exactly what you saw; don't interpret or give opinions. The rest of your message is an accounting question, not a GnuCash question. I'm not an accountant, and even if I were you didn't tell us which jurisdiction you're in, which can have a large impact on the correct answer. What would you have done in the old pen-and-ink-in-tall-leather-bound-ledgers era? That is just what you should do in GnuCash.
