Bruce,
Thanks for the response.
Yes, I have ask.libreoffice.org bookmarked also. It is another resource. This forum has
benefited me in the past, and I prefer to stay with it. As I said, I have been away for about
2 years and I was not sure what had happened to the forum in that time. I have spent the last
year off-and-on trying to sign up again through my at&t/yahoo email provider, but my
subscription requests have been going into a black hole. I never even got the subscription
confirmation replies. I suspected the problem was with at&t/yahoo again, similar to 2 years
ago, so I had a friend, who was not with at&t/yahoo, test the subscription process and it
worked for him. That was when I had proof that the problem was with at&t/yahoo. I suspect
they are blacklisting this forum for whatever reason, but they never told me they were doing
it. I am in the process of shutting down my at&t/yahoo email service and, as you can see in
the header, I am in the process of switching to FastMail. They seem to be working fine.
Thanks again and take care.
Girvin
