I'm not surprised.  Spam bugs me, but with the mail software and spam 
filtering I use, about 90% disappears and the other 10% I can deal 
with.  Not everyone is using spam filtering and they tend to be 
reluctant to use any email-based system.

Still under consideration - I'm not worried about speed with only 150 
or so members and a likely sign-up rate of about 50%.  We'll be using 
it to send club info on a weekly or bi-weekly basis (I'm guessing) so 
it won't be a volume that makes speed an issue.

Thanks for the info, Wes!
