    3. If we don't report spam nothing will be done also it helps to let the Admin know how big the problem is. It seems to me a lot of people are having this problem if we just keep deleting and not reporting it then nothing will be done.

    3. We are well aware of how big the problem is!!!! Don't you think that the admin team is as sick of it as you are? Until such time as Ancestry sort out the servers there is absolutely nothing we can do. PLEASE DO NOT REPORT SPAM TO THE LIST- you're just making things worse. Terry list admin team.

    3. Hi Terry: I trust everyone will pay attention to your request - which is of course in line with the long-established rule given in the Devon FAQ file (http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/DEV/DevonFAQ#MESSAGES), as follows: "Please refrain from postings which are not of relevance to Devon genealogy - such as messages concerned with genealogical software packages. In particular, do not post messages about computer viruses to the list. (Anyone ignoring this rule is liable to be automatically unsubscribed.) If you have a query or information about a possible computer virus, send it directly to the list owner, Vicki Lindsay Thauvin <[email protected]> or to the list moderators Brian Randell <[email protected]> and Terry Leaman <[email protected]> who will if appropriate communicate its contents to the list. The reason for this rule is simple - fear of viruses is such that any message on the mailing list about a virus is such that, even if the message is itself timely and factual! ly correct (something which is far from always the case), it will lead to a whole host of follow up messages, often of dubious accuracy, which themselves constitute a sort of virus, and annoy many subscribers.” Cheers Brian List Admin Team -- School of Computing Science, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 7RU, UK EMAIL = [email protected] PHONE = +44 191 208 7923 FAX = +44 191 208 8232 URL = http://www.ncl.ac.uk/computing/staff/profile/brian.randell > On 16 Aug 2016, at 08:16, Terry Leaman <[email protected]> wrote: > > We are well aware of how big the problem is!!!!
