Lu,
I think my test mail went through at:
address: [email protected]
subject: ?subject=Airbus-Information

(haven't gotten it back yet) but if that fails - I'd just send it to:

address: [email protected]
subject: FWD:Safety?subject=Airbus-Information

...that's what I'd do anyway. And hey, if that doesn't work - then to h*ll with 'em.
