i'm not boasting, but I've alwasy used my " internet mail account " for lists and such. my ISP mail is a diffrent setup, not to say I have'nt

got crap mail off a mail server before!! just a fact of life in informaion age. I feel we have a great source of info on this list and it has really

helped my understand my rare breed of car.. AKA VW :)

LETS keep the peace and really not get too worked up.. I just hit the trash key not even opening the crap mail in the first place.. * this sends logs you know..

take care and HAPPY hump day.. doh!! ;p

1) get a free "hotmail" (www.hotmail.com) or other web-based e-mail account 2) subscribe to the list 3) post your message from whateverfreewebmailserveryouchose.com

I think one could accomplish this in 5 minutes at a public library or i-cafe.

Wouldn't this work? In what situation would one have access to the internet but be unable to subscribe to the list?
