         Bob,

         You might better set yourself to nomail with the listserve, 
use your user-name and password to access the on-line interface of 
list correspondence, and search for "cemeter" (that would get all 
instances of cemetery, cemeterys(sic), cemeteries, .... but on the 
down side it would leave out "burial ground" or "tomb stone" or other 
related expressions that you perhaps would want to notice if they are 
the only term in a note that refers to cemetery maintainence.

         Beyond that, setting up filters in your mail client is 
relatively easy, usually, but you did not identify that client.  If 
you are using Eudora, I can help you out, reply off list.  If you are 
on the ubiquitous MS mailer, I cannot help except to send you to an 
online tutorial that will take you through the procedure step by 
step.  Listing the client name and version, Google for them; there are lots.

         Regards,        .......niiiiiiiiii

         Heaven goes by favour. If it went by merit, you would stay 
out and your dog would go in.
