Okay, Guys:
The moderator has fallen asleep and hasn't been doing her job--too busy with
other things. I apologize. We do need to change the subject to reflect the
true topic of discussion. This will make it easy on the person reading the
messages and also make it easier to archive the messages.
You can do this by simply pressing shift tab back to the subject line and
deleting out the words and typing in what you want. Better yet, send a new
message and compose your own line.
Thanks!

Subject: [bookport] Subject Lines - Re: Re: Hay, is this list still active?
I caught this message by chance as I think Miss Pamela is working for
APH. I had ignored this thread as it seemed like one of the endless
replies to one test message.
Would itplease be posible for people to change the subject lines to
reflect the topic the messages are on? I am not sure who moderates
this list and I certainly do not want to step on any toes. It's just
that I get several hundred list messages per day and have to depend
on subject lines reflecting the contents of the messages to determine
what I do or do not read. This "hey" thread has been going on for
nearly a week I think and i am not sure what all I missed because the
subject line was not changed. It realy is not so hard to do this and
it would help a lot.
Thanks much and God Bless,
Doris
