A lot of messages are being received with attachments. I thought it was standard policy with rootsweb that no attachments be included in messages. Please advise if things have changed on this list. I know on the lists I administer their are not permitted. regards Linda Beckett Producer of Border Names News, Quarterly Newsletter for the Borders Region Details available from [email protected]

For as long as I can remember, Rootsweb has automatically deleted any attachments on messages sent via their list-server. Therefore it is impossible to receive an attachment via the list. If you get anything from any list with an attachment, delete it as it is most likely a worm or Trojan type virus. Best regards - Mike Penrith, NSW, Australia
