Hi Mike, Penny, and Nathan

Thanks for responding to my question:

>> Have any of you been receiving email "probes" from Listbot?

Hah!  I knew that it what was wrong!  Ever since I started publishing my
ezine there have been very few unsubscribes.  I became suspicious when
I received 10+ for a few days in a row.  No, I wasn't pleased!  I didn't
realize
that I could import them again (yes, I have Listbot Gold.)  I will try that
and see if it works.

Thanks Penny for letting me know that you have been receiving these
probes as well.

I appreciate your suggestion but for some reason, I prefer the Listbot
admin over Topica's.  I had to keep clicking to too many screens to
check all my data with Topica.  With Listbot, all the admin functions
are on one screen, so it is easy to find the functions that I wanted
to view or edit.  Don't get me wrong, Topica is a good listserver, but
I have had no problems with Listbot until now.  Thanks for the input
though!  That is what I like about this list ... I think it is one of the
most helpful lists on epublishing!  There is always someone that
has the answers and are willing to help out.

Take care,

Eva
