Hi Dean.
I couldn't agree more! I just wish the list admin could have figured out why I have trouble posting. No problem getting posts. For a while I could be found in replys,, but that faded also.
Pretty sure you won't get this, but just trying to an ol' friend.

But the thing is, my buddy is on Apple smartphone and computer, and yes his emails come in with the icloud thing. Effortless.
