I don't have the original anymore, but a copy of it, whether sent privately
or cc'd -did- make it to the list.  It's in the list archives--just
checked.

If I remember correctly, Outlook uses semicolons instead of commas (or in
addition to them) to delimit addresses.  So that means it was sent to
fplist -and- you, and Outlook is just translating the list address from his
message to your alias 'fplist', does it not?

Just a theory.  The question is--is OL smart enough to toss dupes?
