Hey folks, Well, I've asked you all that personal messages be sent *personally* and not through the list, but my requests are not being heeded by many. I even taught you how to fix your email address at the bottom of your messages with the "mailto:" option so that it would be simple for people to email you directly, but only a few of you actually did it. SO, I am forced to change the default setting for replies FROM "reply to list" back to "reply to sender." This dismays me very much because I KNOW that a lot of wonderful data will be sent back-and-forth privately that really needs to be archived on this list. Oh well, it'll just be harder for future subscribers to find you via the list archives, but that's the breaks. So, from now on, you'd better be sure to check the email address before you send, so you'll know whether you're sending it to an individual or to the list. -- Regards, Kevin Sellew in Mobile, Alabama *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* List Manager of MOBILE BAY AREA ROOTS [AL-MOBILEBAY] http://www.siteone.com/clubs/mgs/mailroom.htm *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
