Thanks for the response to my question.

I think I may have just hit some sort of "flaky behavior" with this HOTMAIL
subscriber.  The person jumped on the list, threw out a bit of flame bait,
then tried to signoff by replying to the welcome message (it was included in
the post) which came to the list, not the LISTSERV.  It was even funnier
that she actually typed in - with quotes - "SIGNOFF CAT-CHAT".  I handled
it, but I was just curious since the date of the welcome message I saw was
yesterday ......

Just wanted to say that I have been "lurking" out here for several months
and I have learned a lot from you folks.  Thank you, very very much.
