Hello Les,

Well we wouldn't want you to miss anything :-)

The link (URL) you need is in the headers to each mail message sent out by 
the list:

http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/largeformat

The easiest way to change your Email address is to unsubscribe using your 
current EMail address and the password you chose when subscribing.  Then 
subscribe again using your new EMail address.

There is of course nothing to stop you from having two subscribed Email 
addresses at the same time to ensure that you not miss anything.  Simply 
unsubscribe the old address when you are happy all is working with the new 
address.

Now, you do remember your password don't you.......  ;-)

Just in case you forgot to keep your password it has been sent out to you 
again :-)  I cannot see any of the passwords so please do not ask me what 
they are.  I can usually persuade the list server to send reminders out to 
subscribers by Email address though.

One thing to remember is to change your "From" field in your Email client 
to match you subscribed Email address or your posts will bounce

Please let me know if there are any further questions.

**New Topic Messages**
One other general point, most people do this, but can everyone please start 
a new message in their Email client when they are starting a new topic.  If 
you simply hit the reply button in your Email client and change the Subject 
field,
then all the stuff you don't see in the EMail header does clever things 
that completely muntifies the threading in the archive.  So, new topic = 
new message. Thanks.

Cheers,
             Clive
