Thank you for that explanation Joan. Perhaps that would explain what has happened to posts I have sent to various Rootsweb lists. I unsubscribed my AOL e-mail address and resubscribed using my new e-mail address. I have had nothing back from any of the lists and there were quite a few. When I asked for a list of all the lists I subscribe to from password central all I got back was details of my freepages account. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Jean McCarthy nee Moore P.S. Yesterday I sent an e-mail to Roots web as advised on the web site but I have not had a response yet. Although I think I saw a note on the Roots web help page that they are on holiday at the moment. Many thanks in advance. Jean http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jeanmccarthy36/
