Hello from Gregg C Levine That's screwy. Mark, that decidedly important post of yours was flagged as "junk mail" by Outlook when it landed here. And I know that the address the list server uses isn't on it's list. On the really peculiar side, it does the same thing to the e-mail from a magazine that I subscribe to, and I can't find the addresses that it uses in the same wizard's holdings. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
