Soffie, I believe my subscription and that of "Esseu Gambia" are different. When I was subscribed it was by a List Manager who knows me personally and aslo knew that I 'own' that particular email address I asked to be subscribed with bacuse we had exchanged privately many times with that same address. The List Manager in question is Sidibeh. The reason I asked for clarification on this particular issue was to ascertain if hence anyone can be subscribed with any address anytime and from your response I glean that is the case and sponsorship is nolonger required?
