Ben,
Apologies for not responding. Sometimes, a question is asked and either no
one has the answer OR we think someone else will answer and so in the end,
no one else responds. Please re-post your specific question and lets see if
we can answer it for you.

LEAVING THE LIST
================
To stop receiving messages you will need to send a message to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with a command to remove you from the list. The list
manager controls who belongs to the list.
For example:
--------------------------------------------------------------
From: John Doe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: <not needed>
UNSUBSCRIBE
--------------------------------------------------------------
