Sticking 'an' indefinite article before the non-concrete noun would move the sentence slightly closer to grammatical nirvana. Furthermore, as 'the' definite article has been used in this case, one might also consider changing the other *case*, that of 'ideal world'. 'Ideal World' is also a proper noun in this context, and therefore should have capitalised first letters..as should 'Virtual Ticker (tm)'. Furthermore, and furthermore (uhumm), the 'verb' *will* is not 'associated' with 'ideal world'. 'virtual folder is the subject of the verb agreement.

Creating a Mailing List ?
I must be suffering some kind of brain infarct, but for the life of me, I can't see how to create a simple Mailing List, with only two addresses, and have both those addresses in the BCC field, with the To: field showing only ABC List. I've created the Mailing List, and can see where I can enter the comma separated addresses, but in the Properties section, I can't see where I can allocate those addresses to the BCC field. I can only do that on an individual message basis. Can some kind soul point me in the right direction. Thanks so much... Nick -- --=N.J.

ot: pleading to the knowledgeable users
Somewhat (or completely) off-topic, I apologize, but this is the best group for me to ask. Please PLEASE respond directly to me since I don't know if the moderators would like lots of traffic on this one. I find myself in need of a secure-news newsreader. Something that supports the snews protocol, that is. I've used Agent for years, and the only clients that I know of presently are LookOut and Netscrape. I'd rather not install either of the behemoths on my computer if I can help it... Anyone have or know of any alternatives? thanks, -tom! -- Tom Plunket 3D Studio/video game geek -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

This is not the perfect solution, however, as I do not want an extra copy coming back to myself. What I did, was set up a new Contact with the name I wanted to use, but didn't associate any E-Mail addresses with it in the Address Book. I then created an Address Book template... kept the To: line empty, and put in comma separated addresses in the BCC: field. It seemed to send OK, but I'm just waiting for word back from the recipients to see if everyone received the test message properly. The only drawback to this of course, is always having to open the address book just to send a message to that List. Nick -- --=N.J.
