Wish I could come!
I wish even more (well, okay, maybe not more) that gmail weren't sending so
many vanagon emails to spam - apparently everything coming from a yahoo
address. Is anyone else finding this? At first it was just Stephen
Grisanti's messages, but now lots more.
Does anyone know how to prevent this?
