Hi again,

Thanks for that info Dean... unfortunately its the latter. I add them  
and on the add subscriber screen I made sure the box was checked that  
said "send email notification" and then after I added everybody  
(including my own email) I got the 6-7 or so emails that showed the  
subscribers being added to the list. I'm guessing they got the message  
that they were added to the list.... my email address of my own that I  
added got one.

However, when I post the list the email address I added doesn't get  
any of the messages... and another susbcriber notified me that he  
hadn't gotten it either. So it seems somehow, even though I've done it  
the same way before, nobody is getting them. I may very well be  
missing something I did last time... I just don't remember it being  
all that complicated because my last list I had up and running in 10  
minutes or so after I got the creation email.
