But yeah, if the email address is not being used then gee I guess it does not need to be on the website. (smacks forehead) Just a matter of deciding who should get what mail. And writing the form, which is not trivial for a newbie like me. Standby for questions on cf-newbie <g>
But good idea, Doug. Sometimes it takes another person to point out the obvious.
