Maybe off topic: This is interesting in that I received this and another from the same source in my inbox? But not on my list inbox?
It CC's to the list, but when I looked at the list posts, it wasn't there? So I replied to all and that didn't get onto the list? I suspect something tricky here? Maybe someone can enlighten me?

I wanted it disabled because satellite doesn't use it and it is just another hurdle that doesn't need to be there for my purpose.
