Hi Listers, I haven't received a reply to my e-mail to subscribe to the Black Country mailing list and am wondering if it still exists? Would someone please be able to tell me? Diane (Melbourne - ex Brummie with Oldbury connections.)

Hi Diane, Yes the Black Country list still exists. I had to resubscribe a couple of weeks ago after my summer holiday and they now send you an email when you subscibe and you have to reply to the email to activate the "subscription". If you go to Rootsweb home page, click the link for browse mailing lists, click on England and the you should see eng-blackcountry, click on the subscribe shortcut. Some of the lists seem to respond differently when you subscribe, the B'ham list admin send the response email and then you are subscribed straight away (well that's what happened to me) and others you have to activate the response email before you receive any mails (like Black Country and Staffordshire). Hope this helps, Judy Diane Lowery <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Listers, I haven't received a reply to my e-mail to subscribe to the Black Country mailing list and am wondering if it still exists?
