ok... in the situation we're looking at, the response never made it back to the
moderator/creator... but the listing is in the elist...

i know that feeling :(
BS> However, if you simply asked me privately to transport the

BS> I'm sure Ross, Brenda, and Janis would also follow suit.
hummm... i understand... would this be considered private transport or backbone
transport where everyone has access and it does show up in the NO/NA files?
BS> BUT, maybe first check the latest release of BACKBONE.NA and

BS> well over a year.
is that the official one that your system manages or the one that bedyneck's
system does?
