As I posted to Mauro yesterday (and implied in another reply here a few 
minutes ago), I'm going to look at what I'm doing and probably change it 
to do exactly what you want here.  But it's going to have a wait a 
little while longer while I deal with a plumbing nightmare that is 
directly above my server here.  Worst spot in the house where this could 
have happened :-(

p.s.

You don't need to cc me on these replies.  I closely monitor the list.  
And you DEFINITELY don't need to cc both of my e-mail addresses.  I 
don't need 3 copies of each message.  If you need to send mail directly 
to me, just use isely at pobox.com.  It is forwarded to the other address.  
I reply from that other address but a reply-to is set in all e-mail 
which directs further replies back to the pobox.com address.  You should 
almost never have to use that "other" address for anything and I'd 
prefer it not be used since it is not anywhere nearly so well filtered 
against junk.  (As for why this situation exists, that's a long story 
that isn't worth repeating here.  Short summary - if you post to this 
list, don't bother cc'ing me.)
