Dear friends of Beara, A reminder to all reading this, especially those reading from the web archive or who've gotten messages forwarded from someone, that in order to post to the BEARA mailing list you must be subscribed to the BEARA mailing list. I check the spam trap for the list about once a day, and today I've found several messages intended for Riobard O'Dwyer sent from e-mail accounts that are not subscribed to the BEARA list. I fear the authors of those messages are going to be disappointed, even though I've forwarded the messages on to Riobard. Furthermore, when engaging in a private business communication, you really should send the message directly to the e-mail address of the person with whom you wish to do business. Communications sent to the BEARA list at large get placed into the Rootsweb archive, from which they can not be removed and remain searchable via Google and similar search engines.
