Patrick, I don't think the inquiry and volunteer emails are reaching 
affiliates yet. Now that the site has been moved to a stable location, 
we are working on that specific issue and several others (started 
yesterday--I'm hoping it's just a few days till it's fixed but can't be 
sure till it's done).
