Thanks David, I had done exactly that earlier, and had switched it back to the correct group right after I realized my mistake.  However, at the time I had thought incorrectly that it would still go to the group that was listed at the time of submission, but it appears that it goes to the group listed at the time when the message actually posts.  The message just posted a few minutes ago and went to the right group.

I very much appreciate your assistance.
