Matt,

Seems I can't post from gmail either.  Not a platform problem (I don't 
think) as am running XP Pro/Media Center subset and can post from RoadRunner 
(bleep bleep)  Tried posting from two diff gmail accounts registered with 
C-H list and used same format that you and several others use.

Weird!  But I'm not all that computer-smart.   :(

John --

I'm not sure....Mary-Anne seems to think that the problem may be
platform-specific (if I remember correctly).  However, using a
web-based service (like gmail) should take care of any problems like
that.  I am currently subscribed via gmail, but I used to use Yahoo!
and didn't have any problems with that either....curious, eh?
