TO ALL GMAIL USERS: Here is the link and fix I created that shows how to fix Gmail so that Gmail does not delete your distributed posts out of Rootsweb. (Gmail thinks it is spam because it appears your own sender address was spoofed.) http://www.minco-ok.com/temporary12/gen-newbie/ Before I found that fix on another site, I was getting paranoid thinking that the list admin was deleting all of my gmail posts.

Woody, I have begun to see that now. AOL has been having more advertisements than ever before lately and I think this is just one of them. It has been moving back and forth from folder to folder whichever I am currently using.

Woody, You are entirely correct. I can see this now.

Just my 2 cents. Nut AOL probably senses <is that a word> LOL you are talking about Nomorerack, and put the advertising on your page. Facebook can do that. But Firefox has a Add-on to stop ads on FaceBook.

I agree with you Woody concerning a stable email. I do lots of genealogy as well but have moved to different areas at times and have had to change my address. But Janet has been so upset over Nomoerack that I was curious as to why Janet would put up with the hassle of fighting advertisements. Then you explained that AOL appears to be the problem and not the catalog company. When I move I usually just re-sign up to the list with my new address. I have wondered about outlook.com. So far Thunderbird has been a good choice for me. But if it starts using advertisements without my permission then I certainly will not keep using them. I POP from g-mail to Thunderbird because I do not like g-mail's setup. Thanks for explaining the Nomoerack problem - it has been very interesting.

Hi Janet, Thunderbird is a free email program that I have used for years. It is free of advertisements. I use rr as well but I like Thunderbird best. I use folders also. I can't say if there is a limit on the number of emails that can be placed in a folder. But you can Google Thunderbird and find out about the program and what it will and will not do. You are more patient than I am - I wouldn't put up with what you are going with AOL. If Woody is correct then Nomoerack is not the villain but AOL is. Once again Good Luck!

Les, On AOL, click on Options at the right hand corner at top of page, select Mail settings, the on the left hand side of the page is Spam Settings, click on it. Then a pages comes up where you can list email addresses you don't want to received. And you also have a choice whether to show them or just have them deleted without you reading them.

If you use Thunderbird or any other standalone e-mail client, you are limited ONLY by the available space on your hard drive. This will eliminate any storage problems you may have and the e-mails are as safe as anything else on the hard drive. You will also be surprised how much faster you can access and read your mail by not having to use webmail like AOL. You can also work off line, reading and composing your mail, and sending it when you sign on to your account.

I am also on rr and am in the process of moving everything over to AOL because of the space limitations that rr has. AOL has never failed me in the past many years that I have had it. AOL does not have a hold over me, I use it because I chose do and it works well for my needs. I have no idea what Thunder bird, could you tell me what the advantages of changing to Thunderbird would be. Do you use it?

Yvoone, I didn't receive an invitation from Nomorack, just read the email from Nomorerack supposedly from Suzanne that some creep or Nomorerack used her email to send to everyone. I did not click on the address in the email if this is the address you are referring to. I will find another way. Thanks for your help.

Sorry Suzanne that some creep has invaded your privacy. When I see things like this in an email I have made it a policy to never never click on any link. The link informing you that you can opt out by clicking on it is scary on it's own. Good luck Janet - I certainly hope you can conquer this mess.

Janet, Are you going to have to change your pass word and email address to get rid of this blight? Is there not a way to get this stopped through AOL? I am just curious, as it seems to be a much deeper problem than just spam. Is there anyone else on the list having this problem? Les, would like your full thoughts on what you think might be going on. Thanks, Yvonne On 2/23/2014 11:35 AM, wstjs@aol.com wrote: > Les, > > Something new is now happening for me. Everytime I send mail now, up comes the same full advertising page of nomorerack on my screen as AOL is reporting to me that my mail has been sent. They are real leeches. > > > > > > > >

Woody, yes! I will take "the fix", please.
