Please check I am getting this e mail. I don't care about the e mail but
I have concerns that I did e mail my credit card $100 for the list
contribution and did not credit it to my e mail address

Craig,
Well, this particular post *response* is kind of an exception to the Squelch. Without waxing to geek, when I send out a Fund Raiser message, I include a special email header that flags the email as a Contribution message so when it gets processed by the Matronics system, it is only sent to people that haven't yet made a Contribution. This special header isn't kept when the message is redistributed by the system, however, so any subsequent replies to my original message will go to everyone.
I checked the records, and your generous Contribution was successfully received and recorded. Thank you!
The Contribution web site is: http://www.matronics.com/contribution
Best regards,
Matt Dralle
