In general those two lists should be identical, except in unusual cases... And the list is used in multiple places where the context of send vs. receive each might be relevant. E-mail addresses are always at least capable of being bi-directional inherently, even if you happen not to use them that way, so I'm not sure why that distinction should be relevant/meaningful. -- Derek D.
