I'm glad to cause trouble. ;-) > I've ROTted Matt's address out of courtesy. Thanks to TMDA (http://software.libertine.org/tmda), I don't care if my raw address (matt@lickey.com) gets out there. The point of the +dated.. stuff is to make it easy for folks to reply to my posts without going through a confirmation step proving that they're a human. The +dated.. addresses expire after a while. Actually, some of the benefit is just having the + in the email address. Harvesters are often tripped up by it. I imagine your mailer may bounce mail to "usenet at twilley.org" quite a bit. > Jack. > (took me forever to figure this out.) I think elisp is hard. After 5 years of insignificant tinkering, I'm approaching a novice skill level. -- matt
