For many years on another busy list, I kept my subscription 
set to INDEX, and my fingers did the details while I chose which 
posts to get. That was one of the best unburdeners I ever found ; 
blessed be the author of it!

 	I'm hoping others here feel the same, because of course I 
set my SL subscription to index ASAP. But my disobedient trifocal 
fingers and arthritic eyeballs have forgotten too much.

  	I've reread the refcard, the FAQ, etc., etc. Yet every reply 
I send comes back with error messages only. (Yes, I do send to the 
server, not the lists ; I remember that much, thanks be!)

  	I have to be messing up some trivial detail. Will some 
indulgent soul, who uses the index option, walk me through it once 
more? (Under the list, of course!) Or just proofread one of my 
misconfigured responses? (The address above is valid ; but better is 
<[log in to unmask]>)  TIA!
