Hi Julie, and other lurkers...

Don't worry about the list being distributed in digest form, it can't
possibly happen!!!

The list server will not allow it - it's as simple as that. :-)

Voting either for or against will not change that, it is not an option.

It appears we are going to go through this little exercise everytime we get
a couple of new members who think we are waisting their time. This maybe
the case. But then again
Andrew and I are more than happy to see SPAMS and semi personal type of chit
chat take place.

I will change my sig. block to state that the RML cannot be a digest or
words to that affect. Not that all will bother to read it <g>

Cheers
Alan - Co-owner RML
