And I.
The confession explains inconsistencies in the posts.

I thought Irene's problem was that she could only, on
lit-ideas, use webmail. (But I may be thinking of
someone else.)
My question to Irene

There is a "why anyway" question, given that the
trigger was an e-mail problem: why not re-join as --
e.g. -- Anne Diamond.
(I add that you clearly know more about AA than I,
presumably it's larger in North America than it is
here.)
and there's a "if it's OK to do that on a list like
this, is it also OK to maintain the pretence
off-list?"

receive the mail and keep an eye on things. I think

Interesting. Many women post to web fora using male
or neutral names simply because people don't listen to
women/don't read women's posts; they are rarely
detected.

I see no need for you to apologise to Irene for saying
that.
