Hi folks, It's Betsy. From time to time, I'm going to be adding a list of the new mailing lists so that if you see an area of interest, you can subscribe to it. You would subscribe just as you do to any other RootsWeb mailing list. If you don't want to see these, I will always put "New Mailing Lists" as the subject and you can just go ahead and delete. Good Luck, Betsy TO SUBSCRIBE OR UNSUBSCRIBE from any RootsWeb-hosted mailing list, send an e-mail message with only the word SUBSCRIBE (or UNSUBSCRIBE) in the subject and the body of the message to [name of list]-L-request@rootsweb.com (for mail mode) or to [name of list]-D-request@rootsweb.com (for digest mode). FOR EXAMPLE, if you have interest in Evangelical and/or Reformed Lutheran genealogy and history, send a SUBSCRIBE message to: <LUTHERAN-ROOTS-L-request@rootsweb.com>.
