I also had difficulty at one point with another aspect of the list -- none of my
posts would make it through. I had a correspondence with a fellow named Karl Asha in
which we finally figured out that it was because I was subscribed to the digest
rather than the full list, but still it surprised me that not only was blocking
digest subscribers' posts a policy (is that the only option?), but that this policy
seemed to have been instituted out of the blue, with no notices sent or posted on the
web site. The nature of Mr Asha's reactions to my suggestions led me to believe that
he's probably the wrong person to turn to when it comes to requesting modifications
to the mechanics of this list. I wonder who the real administrator is?
