Hi. well folks, the answer to this one is quite simple. when you write your 
subject lines, don't put the letters jfw in there, because it's just gonna 
be there anyways, so we end up hearing jfw twice in a row. It's annoying!!!!
If people would learn to use their e-mail programs more effectively and pay 
attention to where their messages are going, there wouldn't be the need for 
jfw to be in the subject line of every message. I have all my lists going 
to different boxes, so i know where they're going.  Of course if you're a 
beginner and don't know this then you're not going to know, but if you ask 
how it can be done on another blindness related list i'm sure you can get 
help with  it.
