Woody, Thanks for your crystal-clear instructions to get Gmail to return your e-mail to the inbox. The last time you posted instructions, I followed them as best I could but it apparently wasn't good enough. It didn’t work. This time your instructions were presented so clearly only a nitwit would not be able to follow them. Woody, I’m a nitwit. It didn’t work. I did exactly what you showed, step by step. But I still don’t get postings of my submissions back. I POP my e-mail from Gmail into Windows Live Mail. But my postings don’t show up there, nor in my Gmail Inbox on the Web. Have you any other ideas or suggestions?

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.
