I think this has appeared before. Anyone know if it has?
John & Jayne,

Pardon my ignorance, but I've always wanted to know: is there a standard form for such email entries? What would the normal heading be, for example: No. 2780? Should there be a cover letter and a bio as well, or just the poem and contact info, or does the email itself provide all the contact info the editor needs and/or wants? Are there different entry formats used for the different competitions often posted in Drills & Amusements?

I just subscribed to The Oldie, by the way, having seen it mentioned here so much. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it.

Best,

Ed
