[Rhodes22-list] regarding request to MJM

[Brad Haslett]

Wally,

If you sort through all the BS, a lot of which I create, (bill e too) people
don't have that much difficulty deleting  'da list' e-mails.  By accident, I
was forced to switch e-mail servers and there was a hidden gem.  All my
business and important personal e-mails go to Yahoo, about five a day.  'Da
List' goes to Google, which I can deal with when it is convenient.  The more
I use Google mail the more I like it.  Perhaps a reverse switch is in
order.  Anyone who complains about the Rhodes-22 list needs to join another
sailboat list for at least a month.  It may be a PITA to manage the volume
on this list but at least it isn't boring.

Brad
