Oh, I forgot, we use VERP now, so the address you subscribed with is now 
encoded into our sending address.  Look at the headers, any of the 
following will do:

   Return-Path: <nylug-talk-bounces+ron=vnetworx.net at nylug.org>
   Sender: nylug-talk-bounces+ron=vnetworx.net at nylug.org
   Errors-To: nylug-talk-bounces+ron=vnetworx.net at nylug.org

You'll see ron=vnetworx.net in there.  Replace the = with an @ and you 
get ron at vnetworx.net, which is my subscriber address.

- Ron
