Actually, I included my "solution" hidden in my original reply.  (Although 
it appears that some SMTP server along the way added an extra space after 
the comma.  I double-checked, and it's not in the copy in my "sent" folder, 
but it's in the copy I received back from the mailing list.)

It took less than a minute to write (following the directions I included in 
my reply, below).  Give it a shot before giving up.
