List - Sorry to take up list bandwidth, but Allen has an e-mail problem and
can't subscribe, but I know he looks at the archives, so I'm hoping he sees
this.  I'd e-mail him...but then then there wouldn't be a problem. (grin)

Hi Allen,

Well, it must be something funny on your end.  I sent you a nice long reply
before explaining all the changes, and you obviously didn't get it...it
bouced back to be.

***I'm thinking that you have your return address in your e-mail program set
wrong.  Talk to your Internet Provider and once you fix that, you'll be able
to subscribe again.  If your totally lost and need to call me I'm at
602-770-0539***

It would make sense that there is an e-mail problem on your end also because
when I find e-mail being bounced back to the server I unsubscribe the user.
This can happen for a LOT of reasons...like when people close their account,
or their email box is full (over quota they call it).  At any rate, I get
about 10-20 e-mail addresses that go bad every day now and about all I can
do is remove them from the list.  Just to give you an example of how messy
this gets...let's say there are 10 bad addresses on the Collins list, and
there are 27 postings in a day.  I get 270 error messages....and that's just
for one of the lists.

So, my guess is, your e-mail system has had some problems and during one of
the times it was down I cleared anyone that was bouncing.

Just re-subscribe and you should be fine.

As for the archives...I did some cleaning up when we moved to the new server
and that's why it only uses the one word now.  The bottom of every message
has always used just the one word and I did some magic to make it work.  I'm
going to guess you book marked the address I magically took you to and when
I cleaned things up, the bookmark didn't work any longer.

Computers make life easier...just keep repeating that to yourself....that's
what I do. (grin)
