Alternatively, you can do as I do - read the newsgroup. The only downside is that I have to remember to change my TO: in my replies to the listserver address (otherwise only people who read the newsgroup get my reply). Any newsgroup reader will keep track of what I've read, and keep threads together, without interfering with my normal e-mail functions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
