Robert,

   I had the personal mail address in To, From, Sender, and Recip. Just added
it to Partic.

   For mail sent to my personal domain, I'm always the To address.

   I had Email checked and just changed it. For the Folder List, I have both
the incoming-mail name and the ~/mail name (in that order, on two separate
lines).

   All mail to the personal address should go to the twodogs/personal folder.
Business mail goes to my INBOX or is routed by procmail recipes to specific
mail list/subject folders.

   I'll gzip it and send it off the mail list. Having it checked would be a
very good idea.

Thanks,
