Hello List Members, A note to all MSN subscribers. If you have a HOTMAIL account (and maybe you have one you don't know about) and if your Hotmail mailbox is full, your MSN mail will bounce. Pretty hard to figure out! For Example: Hotmail mailbox fills up all by itself with amazing junk mail that you didn't ask for, wasn't expecting. This will cause problems with your mail. This also can happen with Yahoo, Excite, Alta Vista etc Also if you want a more personal email address with junk mail and a larger storge Check out the Free Email Accounts I offer on my Home Page at www.jhgreen.net you can choose from Past ; Mailaus ;Greenau; Twba ; Tenpin or Steamtrain Mail it's all free these can be setup as pop mail on your outlook express or checked from any computer at anytime, and no extra juck mail. Every so often one of the ISP's has problems and mail will bounce. Sometimes the servers 'time out' or the message can't be delivered for xx number of days or some other useless message pops up like the 'process is busy with another task'. All any of that means is that you don't get your mail and your mail 'bounces'. The mailing lists are set up to automatically 'unsub' a subscriber after 3 bounces. If you stop getting mail from one of the lists, you can post a message to the list, and you can check the archives to see if there are posted messages you have not gotten. If you get the message that you have been 'unsubscribed' and you didn't want to be, just send an email to the 'request' address with the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject line and in the message area and you will be added back to the list. One more thing - DON'T OPEN ATTACHMENTS. Rootsweb doesn't send attachments. There are known Spammers out there who knowingly attach viruses to thier spam. DON'T OPEN ATTACHMENTS NO ONE on Rootsweb lists is sending viruses out on purpose. Don't be so quick to point fingers. If you tried to click on one of these attachments, you are just as guilty as the person you got it from - that's all they did! Keep your virus software current - check every day or so for new virus files and DON'T OPEN ATTACHMENTS!!!!!! Thanks for your patience. This message does not need to be discussed on the lists. Take them to private emails. Cheers Your List Administrator John H Green www.jhgreen.net
