Thanks Barbara: I didn't look at the bottom of the mail before sending my suggestion. I hope there's a good reason why unsubscribers are told to send a message to users+help instead of instead of users+unsubscribe. But at least Phil should have got a message back that he can read. As to your question, I don't know the answer, and we'll have to wait for the owner. I'm just a moderator. //James -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
