Good to know, Doug, thank you! 

Have to say, though, that the PDML listserv is one of the fussier that I use. 
(The listserv I use for my motorcycle mailing list is actually a good bit 
fussier—by intent, it will not post anything that isn't plain text and limits 
post size pretty tightly. Everyone seems to like it as it is so I've been 
reluctant to change it. :)
