Jennifer Sherwood Braswell jensgen@iol10.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Crilley <crilley@eramp.net> Subject: Personalized Mailing Lists - Rootsweb : Rootsweb has a NEW search engine for mailing lists which covers ALL Mailing : Lists.... : : You have to be a contributor to get this service, but I hope most people on : our Lists are already, as I really think Rootsweb has provided so much for : all of us by providing the free space for all our County Pages, Archives, : and Lists. : : See below for how to to sign-up for this PML "Personalized Mailing List". : : I have been very surprised at the number of queries that mention one of my : "surnames" on other lists! Then you can simply reply and reach the person : who sent in the original query. : : Be warned though, that with some names, you may get LOTS of misleads! If : the person includes the names they research in their "signature : lines"....and does alot of posting to lists, then you'll receive ALL their : post even if the subject is not pertaining to your surname. : : When you become a RootsWeb contributor or upgrade to the : $24/year level you gain access to RootsWeb's new Personalized : Mailing List. : : PML <http://pml.rootsweb.com/> allows you to enter : multiple complex search terms and receive daily notification by : e-mail of any new post that matches those search terms on any of : RootsWeb's nearly 15,000 archived mailing lists, 140,000 message : boards, and 780,000 RootsWeb Surname List (RSL) entries. This : magnificent tool is RootsWeb's "thank you" to its financial : contributors. : Virginia : :
