Just a quick note to let everyone know and to say thanks to Mike Werner who
was able to figure out how to change the default on the list server so that
new subscribers WILL see their own posts echoed back to them by default.
Thanks Mike! He really has a strange and wonderful ability to read arcane
documentation.

Hopefully, this will cut down on the "is anyone getting my posts" posts.

I've noticed that despite passing the 2000 member mark, the PICList is
seeing a lot fewer "unsubscribble" posts, also thanks to Mike changing the
less than totally useful default "welcome" message sent by the list server
to new subscribers.

List of things the list server can't do that we would like:
- reject HTML Posts (Please, try not to post in HTML)
- strip attachments or cache them at a web page (adding a link to the
message)
- virus scan (probably not necessary if the previous two could be done)

Please send other ideas to me directly:
