Yes it is for thefoldmusic.com. To my knowledge, most recipients NEVER even 
receive the e-mails I send out. Only a few of the early letter of the 
alphabet receive them. I've tried sending on off hours, that worked better 
with my old server (pair.com), but for budget purposes I have switched to 
bluehost.com which is where the mailman list currently resides.
