List Members: A request to all list members. Please, when subscribing to a mailing list, remember your user name and email address used when subsribing to a list. I find it helpful to keep the automated letter I receive from Rootsweb with each list subscription. Many times subscribers will send a request to Rootsweb to unsubscribe from a mailing list and they will use a different email address (or sometimes the email address has had a slight change to it) than the one used with subscribing. If, when sending a request to unsubscribe your email address shows different from that which is on the list of subscribers, the computer at Rootsweb will not be able to find it. A copy of the notice returned to the subscriber will also go to the List Administrator. After many unsuccessful attempts, some subscribers will then send another request to unsubscribe SHOUTING at the computer that they have tried several times to unsubscribe and are still getting messages. Of course, these, too, are also sent to the frustrated list administrator because they get copies of all messages sent to the subscriber. If there are several hundred subscribers on the list it is hard for the list administrator to find this person because the email address used t! o SHOUT with is different from that which they subscribed with. So PLEASE, to keep your list administrators from getting frustrated with your frustrations, please remember which email address you subscribed with and if there are any slight changes to your email address (sometimes ISPs will make slight changes to the part that comes after the @ and although their computers recognize the old part the computers at Rootsweb do not). THANK YOU for indulging my frustrations. Sarah McCray ENG-LANCS-YORKS list administrator
