M. Darboe, what happens is when you hit reply at times, the mail is sent directly to the sender and not to the Gambia-L.  I have scratched my head in vain as to why this strange scenario happens only in certain instances.  But, for real, this is only a minor inconvenience.  Next time you reply, look in the "send to" box, and make sure the email is addressed to the Gambia-L.  If this is not the case, just delete the contents of the "send to" field, and type in the following address:

I have also seen a lot of posts that request subscriptions for certain individuals.  We could cut down on server load (Gambia-L's server can only process a certain amount of emails every day before others start getting delayed) by simply going to Gambia-L's website and subscribing the interested party.  The address to the site is posted at the end of every posting.
