Roberta -
Is there a way to put a block on the emails that would still allow them
to get mail from colleagues - maybe just not from the Woman's Forum? I'm
sure Bruce could whip up some program for it :-)
On the other hand, it seems to me that a simple request not to send
private emails should suffice.
