Gang, Ok, I just did the google search thing. Note that all of the hits were dated back in June, that is because it took me a few days to figure out how to program the admin list configs to keep the emails private. By July I had most of it figured out, until just recently, the admins got a message that an outsider (who was an admin from another list on freelists) figured out how to join our list. Don Phillips (also our admin) removed him, and I later figured out how to prevent that from happening again by with an additional admin config option. There has been a learning curve here, but I do believe we will be secure if we stay on top of things. No recent ee_shoppahs postings show up when I google it.
