Hi Folks, One more problem has cropped up. In order to send a message to any Rootsweb list (such as the Adams Co. list) you must be sure that you are sending the message in plain text mode, not HTML (the language used for web pages). For those of you using Outlook Express, there's an option under Tools, Options, Send for using plain text for sending message. Other email programs have similar choices, I think. Here's the reason (from the Rootsweb staff): We've had to institute this policy because of the problems that accompany these fancy mail formats. Some people don't have mail programs that are capable of processing the special file formats. Even among those who do, different mail programs handle these special formats in very different and confusing ways. HTML messages pose special problems to our digested mailing lists. Most of all, HTML-ified mail and attachments place a considerable burden on RootsWeb's overworked machines. All in all, mail in this format produces a lot of problems for RootsWeb's servers and subscribers, so we find it's best just to use plain text. -- The RootsWeb staff Thanks for your help in this matter.
