Hi Paul,

I realize that modern mailers can be configured to do abount anything 
you want them to do but I prefer to let all messages show up in the 
inbox and start at the top and work my way through them.  Having the 
list name in the subjuect line provides a nice visual cue as to what 
list I am reading.  Anyway I apprecaite the info I get from the list 
regardless of its format.

Jim
