Note - If you get this message more than you should have, I apologize. I am
routing all my Charter mail through GMAIL now and sending from GMAIL through my
Charter Account is messing up. It works sometimes and other times it won't. I
may have to change my subscription for TN and Bristol Birds to GMAIL because it
is 100% better.
