IMPORTANT NOTICE

The BAU inbox has been around for a long time - almost seven years. But looking at the dwindling number of CM-related entries on this site and the growing number of fans who rely exclusively on Tumblr for their fannish pursuits, it seems foolish to continue with this newsletter. And so, at the end of this year, bau_inbox will stop posting newsletters.
