I get bounced when I try to send a message to the steering committee too.

So, basically, what you're saying is that if anyone wants to reach the Steering Committee, they have to rely on someone randomly checking the moderation queue. I have a serious problem with that. What if you go on vacation or a business trip? What if it's something timely that the SC needs to know (i.e. someone has hacked into the TriLUG servers and is spamming the world)? The [EMAIL PROTECTED] e-mail address is there for a reason. It's the direct link between the membership and the Steering Committee. Any obstacle between that is a problem. Yes, I know it gets a lot of spam. It did while I was on the SC too. You, however, seem to be using a gmail account, and that does very good spam detection so I would imagine that to be a red herring. TriLUG is a membership organization. The route between the membership and the SC should not have roadblocks on it.
