Bill, this may make you feel a bit uncomfortable, so before you do
what I suggest,
make a backup copy of the list's .html file. My suggestion is for you
to delete that
list's .html file. After you also delete the .dbindex and .dbnames
files, you should get
and put the list's header. This will cause the index files to be
generated, but it will
also cause a new .html file to be generated for the list in question.

Just as you have to ditch the .db* and .ind* files for the list, you
also need to
ditch the .html file. I do not see in your email that you tried doing
so yet, so that's
why I am suggesting it.
