RE: (erielack) List Address

["Tupaczewski, Paul R \(Paul\)" <paultup_@_alcatel-lucent.com>]

OK, both Randy and Bob are correct here. Even though it used to say the
message came from a poster's E-mail address, it was actually being
delivered by the Majordomo list software. By changing it now so that the
from is "erielack-owner_@_lists.elhts.org" (on behalf of the poster), it's
more accurate.

OK, we've wasted far too much bandwidth on list adminstration minutae -
can we get back to EL topics please?

Thanks,

	- Paul
