posting replies

[Joel S. Berson]

Two more questions [and on-list also]:

1)  Can you go to the ADS-L site, and check in the archives whether a
reply you think you've sent has arrived there?

2)  I notice you're using two email addresses, @Wordworking.com and
@comcast.net.  You need to use the same address with ADS-L as the one
with which you registered on ADS-L.  If you're replying with one of
these but registered on ADS-L with the other, that might result in a
reply not getting to the list, or your not seeing a reply that you
expect to be sent to yourself.
