I was thinking of the situation of re-direction. One could "subscribe"
with eg. f...@work.com and have emails from that account re-directed
to f...@home.com . Even if only after they leave work. I wanted their
subscription address to be more "in their face" so that it would
reduce confusion as to which email address they were subscribed with.

That is EXACTLY the info I wanted Mark. Thank you. Your help is 
very much appreciated.  :-)
