We have corrected a glitch in the settings for the subscriber list that allowed individuals to reply to the entire list. We apologize for the confusion and the concern this error has caused for those of you on the subscriber list.
In the last few days, subscribers wishing to be removed from the list serve replied to the original message they received regarding news releases. Unbeknownst to them, when they clicked on the reply button, the list serve address was entered in the “to” line of the message. When they clicked on send, their message was sent to the entire subscriber list. Subsequent replies often repeated the process.
We have adjusted our process to preclude this from happening in the future. This e-mail is being sent with the address in the “Bcc” line so replies will only be received at this address. We have also asked our automation personnel to re-set the list serve setting to prevent a repeat of this error.
If you wish to be removed from the subscriber list, please go to the VA website link below and follow the instructions.
Thank you for your patience and we apologize for the inconvenience.

If you get an email from this address, just delete it. I made the mistake of opening an email this morning and the emails keep coming in. They seem to be attached to a press release about Louisville Replacement Hospital. Unless you want to waste most of your day, don't reply to it,,,,don't even open it!
