I have spent nearly 2 hours trying to find out how to change my email address for this and other Rootsweb Lists I belong to. I just can't work out how to do it. There is nothing at the foot of the list message pages to tell me how to change address and the Rootsweb website is so full of gobbledegook that I cannot follow it! Help please! I am going mad here. Trevor

I am going mad here. > Hi Trevor Just subscribe your new email address after you have changed it in your computer For example : To subscribe to the list, please send an email to AUS-VIC-GOLDFIELDS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'subscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message Your old address will drop off the system when mail cant be delivered . You can unsubscribe your old address if you want to but ........ A very useful site to keep in favourites is http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/intl/AUS/ . Good to use as a guide Remember the KISS principle :-) Bye MargM Beautiful Central Coast of NSW
