tooo many messages on standards

So far I would say that it is not a problem.  There are a couple of times
that it seems a bit heay but it only takes hitting the delete key to get
past them.  And if someone pays by the message they can always do what I
have done and set up a Juno Mail account in addition to their regular ISP
for mail lists and it doesn't cost a dime.

I am sure once school begins again it will slow down somewhat anyway.
