Mail List File Rules:
1 - Each Name/Address must be preceeded by at least 1
line which starts with a NON-ALPHA and NON-NUMERIC
character. ( `!@#$%^&*()"'?><\= ) are fine.
2 - The character you choose MUST be used all the
way through the file.
3 - You can have as many of these `comment' lines as you
want before each address.
4 - Don't make any addresses more than 6 lines long.
6 lines is my MAXIMUM.
5 - Don't put a `comment' line after the LAST address.
This is an example of a PROPER Mail List File.
* MUST start with a NON-ALPHA and NON-NUMERIC character.
