I suspect that the names are only really useful for the first few 
times one searches for a report.

I respectfully agree.  I've been on a number of different
mailing lists over time, going back to 1989 when I was on the
Sun-Managers list, where the main requirement was to post the
solution to a problem after querying the list.  That really added
value to the list archives!  I'm new to this list, and I guess
I've been breaking the rule by only replying to the list.  On
other lists, when it looks as if someone might not be a permanent
member, then I'll blind-carbon-copy them as a courtesy.

I don't know if it's the reply-all rule or not, but gnucash-users
is one of only 3 lists I've ever been on that ended up somehow
being harvested by spammers.  I frequently use unique email
addresses for mailing lists, and the address being spammed was
only given to the gnucash-users subscription robot.  Even after
I quit the list, way back when, I continued to get spam at that
address, so much so that I eventually just disabled the address.
The lesson here is that if email addresses appear in the list
archives, then they will eventually be harvested by spammers.
I'd hope that only the list address would appear in the archives.
Well, those are my thoughts.

Regardless of how the list is administered, I got some help      
today quickly that exactly solved my problem, and I'm very       
grateful to have this list, and for the people who helped.       
Thanks all!
