  That can be fixed.  I'll take a look this weekend.

  Peter, let me double check here - you're getting OTHER messages from
the PICList, like this one - and you have set Repro ON, on the PICList,
right?  Hmmm.

  I definitely get my own messages.

  I should go subscribe & unsub from a secondary account & take a look,
then get Jory to review suggested changes.  I'll get into that this
weekend (Need to worry about job search tomorrow, as the phones here
were down much of today - "Backhoe Fade" from this morning, fortunately
the telco people showed up before I was through temporarily splicing the
wires, not on Sunday as we'd been told they'd do.)  It's NOT good to get
me into 'net withdrawal...

  If someone else wants to suggest revisions, that's great (I think I'll
start FTP'ing things up to my home page directory, easy to do) - I'll
ask Jory about revisions.
