Sue,
        Thanks for responding, but  that wasn't my problem.  I'm using the
same email program that I've used since I set up the list last March (Eudora
Lite).  I had recently made a change in the header to handle errors
differently and this problem began after that.  I don't know what caused the
problem, but I finally just established a new password so that I could get
the header and changed Validate to Yes, Confirm. from simply Yes  (I don't
remember changing this when I made the error handling change; it had
previously been Yes, Confirm-- but there it was!)   In any event, the list
is now operating the way it had been before the error-handling change.
 
Thanks, Ben for the tip!
