When I click the "Reply All" switch, it lists you and MDOsprey in the "To" 
window.  This may not be the case for all operating systems, but I am 
sending this note in that manner using Outlook Express to see if it work. 
Maybe the down side is the recipient will get two copies, but it might help 
keep some of the unnecessary traffic off MDOsprey.  Most of the unnecessary 
traffic seems to be directed at an individual, accidentally or otherwise. 
If the sender wishes to send to only MDOsprey, they can remove the address 
of the first recipient.  It also gives the sender the chance to focus their 
response to the intended party.

I  want to thank you for giving this process a try.

George
