When I tried to post CAAL's message about it's new publication, LEADING FROM THE MIDDLE, I was unable to get any NIFL listservs to process the message while it contained a link-through to the CAAL web site. In order to achieve the posting, I had to remove the "http" part of the address, which then made it necessary for people to manually type in the URL to get to the site, no doubt a disincentive to some. Can someone explain to this novice in such matters why I couldn't post my message with the link, but the following message has one and works fine.
