Thanks for the reply (and for the earlier recommendation of QuickAccess CM). I know that you don't have anything to do with the MacVisionaries site. The problem is, when the discuss list archiving stops working it's not clear if there's someone or some place to contact (even if it's not Saqib, who's busy) to get it started up again. A lot of the months have stopped short -- the worst cases being March and September of this year. Here's one of the messages describing the problem that has Cheryl's post and my reply. It's from the Mail Archives because I don't think any August entries after August 12 are in the discuss archives at the MacVisionaries site: http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg17148.html I was just hoping someone might see Saqib and ask him if he has a suggestion. Even if he were willing to post a link to the lists at the Mail Archive site and a search form for it (as described in the Mail Archive FAQ on searching): http://www.mail-archive.com/faq.html#search that would be a big help. And this didn't mean it had to be you -- if anyone has a chance to ask Saqib for suggestions that would be great!
