Yes, our applications list is exceedingly outdated.

We have to get 1.99m out before we can rework our mailing list. Are you aware of the digest form of the mailing list? That will limit your Executor e-mail to at most one message a day, although the message will be a digest. You can switch from the non-digest to the digest by sending e-mail to "majordomo@nacm.com" with a blank subject and a message body that says: unsubscribe executor subscribe executor-digest Chuck> 4) I am receiving multiple copies of some postings Chuck> to this mailing list.
