Clarification: I had tried both of these suggestions, prior to sending out a confirmation test request. I did start a new thread (Registry Error, 8/11/08), to which no one had responded. While I could see other's posts, I could not see my own post in my Gmail account. In trying to see whether my posts were in fact going through, I posted the "Test" message. Some posters replied, allowing me to find see it, as well as how Gmail interprets these posts. Up until this point, I didn't realize that Gmail won't show my posts until someone replies to it (something I just do not understand, but that's a subject for another day).
Had I been able to post the original content through my Cox account, the test would not have been necessary. But given that the Cox account keeps getting bumped by the list, I had to start using a Gmail account. Sorry if my method of troubleshooting this issue have been upsetting to some, but I did what I thought best. Thanks to those who helped me sort this all out. Perhaps I'll need to go back to Remedial Internet Ettiquette school after this (smile) Richard P. Many lists, this one included, go silent for days, weeks, or months at > a time.
