I'll be darned. Al Bell emailed me about 1800 PST and I told him half an hour ago it was running and had about fifty messages today, and I sent some listserv commands that gerry responded to -- we must have overlapped. So I was starting to try to see what was wrong with Al's setup. Boy is my face red! My only excuse is that I read the mail grouped by subject and mixed in with the subaruvanagon mail which apparently helped confuse me. Time to move subaruvanagon to its own mail folder!
