Hinds-L mail list members: WARNING <g> Clif Hinds the administrator of the Hinds list at egroup aka onelist.com is leaving the country for three to five years. He has discovered that his archives cannot be searched as the Rootsweb archives can be searched. To look through his archives at egroup - one has to read every message - only the subject is shown. Clif wants his archives moved to Rootsweb and the Rootsweb "higher-ups" are trying to figure out if it can be done. But, it is taking too long - Clif leaves in a couple weeks and wants to transfer his archives now. So, the group at the Hinds onelist.com list are going to be transferring just the information from the Hinds onelist.com messages to the Hinds-L list - one message at a time. The Hinds onelist.com archives will stay intact where it is. His list has been archived only since March of 1999 so there are only about 314 messages. Half to 2/3s of them are mine which I will send two at a time at a later date. So we are looking at a bombardment of about 100 messages in the length of a week probably. You can attempt to read them as they come to the list or simply delete them and then search the archives later using keywords. If you are worried about your mailbox getting too full - you can unsubscribe from the list and then re-subscribe after the hullabaloo is over. Send me a private message after unsubscribing - saying "Nan, let me know when the Hinds egroup messages are transferred." I'll be happy to let you know when it is "safe" to subscribe again. We don't know any other way to do this. We know you will like the information that will be available in these messages. It is from many varied Hinds lines and Hinds researchers. If any of you are willing to help with the transfer - please contact us Nan Wolf - [email protected] or Clif Hinds - [email protected] Regards, Nan Wolf List Administrator Hinds-L [email protected]
