Patience Andy, remember a few months ago, when IF-1 started. :)

It took a little while before we'd got the hang of it, and although
we're 97% perfect now..... <grin>

I did suggest he read the FAQ, and pointed him in the direction of the
infamous Beginners Guide. Hmmm.... still haven't had any feedback on
that yet. Maybe it's time to start asking for opinions again... Now
where did I put that mail :)

|Just a note in case you ever plan on using that qoute again. It's,
|uh, not old testament. It's new. In fact, it's Revelations 6:8-9.
|Of course, the Old Testament is really more famous for the
|fire-and-brimstone-throw-a-lightning-bolt-at-your-ass weirdness.

Well, I just got an e-mail thanking me for the pointers and asking why
sending an e-mail to listproc@********.itribe.net to subscribe to plotd
wouldn't work....

He's a year out of date on the address side of things....

He said he got the command list, but not the FAQ.....
Anyway, now he's got the correct address (and my template for posting)
things should smooth out a bit....
