Re: MIDRANGE dot COM Privacy Statement

John,

 It's fairly common for those on the list to at least copy the original
sender to help reduce the latency of list, especially when someone is
stuck in a critical situation.  I notice often that in one 'list refresh
interval' several messages between the original poster and a willing
assistant.

 I'd just tell your filter to check for midrange-l anywhere and be
case-insensative (which is how I've had mine set-up for almost two
years.)
