Doh!

I guess I should have looked there.  Sorry about that.  This past week has 
been a bit Mailman-heavy with me chasing 5 or 6 different things at once, 
including moving to Postfix (which was so easy it was scary) and getting 
virus/spam scanning going, documenting things as I go in our internal 
Wiki, teaching sales people how to configure one-way lists...

Thanks,

Charles
