Folks, I'm seeing a problem with long, run-on additions to our extended email connections. It gets near impossible to follow the posts before just getting tired of hitting page down. SO; Do NOT answer an email with a new family or question. Start your own. Rootsweb saves messages by the Title not the inserted message. Do hit the arrow on the top right to reply (automatically pops you into Clanboyd emails AND keeps it under the same message line) Do REMOVE the previous message, unless you copy a specific part of the message. How to remove? When you start to draft your reply you will see 3 dots in the text section [ ... ] Click on those 3 dots and ALL the previous messages will show in the draft. This is hidden in the draft BUT visible to all recipients when they open your new message. Highlight ALL the material- remember we already saw it. DELETE. Then send your message. This is a Rootsweb problem or the admins of this group can not change the settings. Regardless, save some aggrivation and delete the old messages in your answer. PLEASE and Thank you, -- Colin Brooks The 1718 Project [email protected]
