    I've lost track of the new system.  I did just register for a posting
    code, whatever that is.
    
    If I wish to ask a new question or start a new thread via the e-mail
    distribution list these days, how do I do that? (If memory serves simply
    changing the subject line was not the way to go.)
    
    Thanks
    
    Bill B.
