As a reminder - this is the prescribed format to subscribe or unsubscribe for ALL RootsWeb mailing lists. I actually use this format without even looking to see if there is a mailing list for some of the surnames I am searching. For instance I "might" send in Nichols-l-request@Rootsweb.com with the word SUBSCRIBE (only one word will work - absolutely NO signature lines or thank you's will work) and a short time later I will receive a response stating that I am subscribed, or of course my request will bounce if there is no list. It is an easy way for me to post to another surname mailing list for a query, search the archives, and then unsubscribe. For a complete list of the RootsWeb hosted mailing lists go to <http://www.rootsweb.com>. To check on COMMUNITY MAILING LISTS. <http://communities.rootsweb.com/> You can subscribe to a list at that page. Not only are there SURNAME mailing lists, but also REGIONAL mailing lists, ETHNIC, SPECIAL INTEREST, AND MISCELLANEOUS mailing lists. Today the new website for my area is posted for the Grand Traverse Area Genealogical Society (GTAGS), it is migtags@rootsweb.com. I am the website administrator for this site, which by the way is still under construction. Cynthia Russell List Administrator - DODD, FERGUS TO SUBSCRIBE OR UNSUBSCRIBE from any RootsWeb-hosted mailing list, send an e-mail message with only the word SUBSCRIBE (or UNSUBSCRIBE) in the subject and the body of the message to [name of list]-L-request@rootsweb.com (for mail mode) or to [name of list]-D-request@rootsweb.com (for digest mode).
