Jeff, thanks for all of the hard work on preparing for and transitioning

the listserv!

An improved search facility is great news, and "forgetting" is my
specialty!   :)

Sorry, but I have found things to be intuitive only when you know how
they work!  Ask me about my experience with a Mac ... no don't!  Is
there a way to get a listing of the new commands such as GETPOST?  The
INFO REFCARD command returns the old command listing.

BTW, the response from the new listserv is AMAZINGLY FAST!

Jeff, thanks again for all of your hard work.

Sincerely,
Billy Rowland
