Thanks. Guess I should investigate some of these functions a little more
closely!
I appreciate the quick feedback from the community.
Another method for adding a single address that I received was
echo 'john...@gmail.com' | add_members -r - listname
Wouldn't it be nice to simply add this as a function somehow to the existing
add_members routine? :)
Cordially,
Justin Long
