Cindy Amhrein...I'm with you. These Kentucky band notices have no place on NY genealogy lists, and I told [email protected] so directly... but I got no answer. Why not? There's a remote possibility that she's a victim of a virus/worm that is doing it without her knowledge...but I doubt it. If so she would have answered my complaint. My solution...forward all her messages right back to her. If everyone who objects to seeing those messages does the same, every time they see one, her inbox will be so full she'll wise up that others don't like it. Let's see...if she puts it on ten lists, with a thousand subscribers to each list, and she puts it on twice, and everybody sends them back...that's 20,000 messages.........BUT...PLEASE read the warning below carefully...... >>>>> WARNING...WARNING...WARNING <<<< But, and this is a VERY BIG but...on many lists if you click on REPLY you send it to the list, not to the originator, so before anyone goes wild on this...check the address to which you're sending the message, or we'll get 20,000 copies on the lists. UGH! HORRORS! THAT MAKES THE SITUATION WORSE! PLEASE...send Bess's messages ONLY to Bess...not to the thousand people on each genealogy list. If you click on REPLY...check the TO address it generates before you click on SEND. Send complaints only to [email protected] The rest of us don't want to see her listings or your complaints to her.
