A good point, Tyler. I think it might also be a problem for those who read
the list on Yahoo. Before I started sending the mail to my personal email
address, I did read it off the web, and found the only way to read  it was
to bring up the whole list and just keep hitting next. If you try to do
otherwise, it's almost impossible to use. Which is why I started getting it
through the mail.

One way that I deal with so many messages is to create a folder just for
this list in my Inbox folder (Microsoft Outlook). Then I wrote a rule that
sends all the messages for that list to that folder. It makes it somewhat
easier to deal with many individual messages. I'll be happy to help anyone
who uses Outlook or Outlook Express set this up if help is needed. (I
actually wrote the online help for Outlook Express, so I kind of know what
I'm doing ;-))  Off line, of course.

Apologizing in advance if this is off-topic.
