I am asking a favor of those who read and enjoy receiving the old news articles that are submitted. I do not care to receive unsolicited email; that includes jokes and stories, etc., especially those with attachments. Please understand these are not coming thru the mail-list--but separately, and that is the only way that I can figure how these people know my address. This request does not include those who want to correspond for advice, or have questions or comments about certain articles--I enjoy hearing from readers. I understand that when you send email, you may be using the 'send to all in address book', and in that way I am receiving this material. I, for one, do not care to have my personal address forwarded and sent on to persons unknown to me. Has anyone else had this problem? I have written personally to one individual, and asked to please discontinue, but the email continues to come.. This is my personal opinion; I am not speaking for anyone else. Thank you, Linda
