Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE smartphone -------- Original message -------- From: Lauren Boyd McLachlan via <boyd@rootsweb.com> Date: 04/21/2016 12:31 PM (GMT-05:00) To: boyd@rootsweb.com Subject: [BOYD] ADMIN NOTE. CROSS POTINGS. Re: [IRL-ANTRIM] Boyds of Dunluce, County Antrim 1624 Boyd list subscribers: Due to Mike Boyd's method of cross-posting to other rootsweb lists, we will find that there is a delay in some of the responses to some of his posts. This is because they respond on the list that they subscribe to and it comes over to the server for the boyd list. I must then manually review everything that gets caught on the server in order to capture the valuable information that Mike is hoping to share in his research on behalf of all of us Boyd and Boyd descendants. As rootsweb no longer seems to have a viable spam filter I must wade through 200 or so pieces of spam daily in order that the replies to Mike's post on another list are not simply deleted. Please make note of the fact that the replies that have gone from other list are generally sent by people who are not subscribed to the Boyd list. Unless you use reply all when responding to  the message they are not likely to see any reply from you on the Boyd list to them on whatever other list they're on. Please also remove the address of the other list so as not to generate additional work for the other admins. There apparently is no way to overcome this and this fact alone keeps me from setting the parameters on a list so that those who are not subscribed to the list cannot have any post come to the list making it so I don't have to spend time daily rooting through mostly spam. Although that would save me a lot of time daily, we may lose some valuable information. So I will continue to wade through a thousand pieces of spam etcetera so that we don't miss the handful of good information posts that come through and are trapped on the server. The way that Ancestry has made things wotk( that is broke it ) it is also very difficult for me to actually see the content of the message that is coming through from the other list. However I can only assure that it's not going to be spam. Thanks for your understanding.
