Hi all, It appears our list is NOW operating on the "new" system. You MAY have not noticed any changes. Good! If you don't know what I'm talking about, Rootsweb sent an email early in August stating the "mailing lists will be moving to a new list management system." Well... we've been moved and things seem to be operating OKAY! If you missed the original announcement, the reason for the move was to offer updated technology, better spam control, and more efficient hosting of the lists. CHANGES YOU MAY NOTICE One change you'll note is the address where the mail comes from. This will pose no problem for most of you unless you're running spam filters. If you use spam filters on your email, you may have to adjust them or put the new address on your "accept" list to prevent it from being caught in your "junk" folder. You'll need to drop the "-L" from the "official" list name. That means the "from" address will be [email protected] not [email protected] Digest subscribers will notice a small difference in the layout, volume and issue numbers of the list digests. Sending messages TO the list will still work using either email address - the old email address <[email protected]> or the new address: [email protected] SPECIAL NOTE: A couple of you were receiving individual messages AND Digests. The "new" system will not allow mail sent to both list posts and digests using the same email address. So if you formerly rec'd both, you have lost one or the other at this point. Because of the way the new software handles the lists, you will have to subscribe to the other mode with an alternate address. (Sorry for the inconvenience.) In closing, IF you have any problems, please contact me privately. I'm here to help. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
