Now, that might work. If their address isn't replyable, they would never
get the message to respond to.....only downside, is that you may get
nasty-grams later of 'why didn't you add me'. :)
That is one to look into, as it seems the best option so far. Nathan, I
looked into your suggestion, and unless I am confused, wouldn't the
template you mention go to the owner, and not the subscriber? (Sorry I
can't grab my manual, I am moving and it has been packed already)
Thanx for all the help so far.
