Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've sent this out so here it is! Please read this entire message and please save a copy of this message for future reference. This list is for the discussion of Jackson County genealogy and history. Discussion of immigration, historical sketches, Jackson County settlements, census data, wills, family Bibles, vital records, web sites, etc. as relates to Jackson County is encouraged. Public announcements of information of interest to Genealogists in general though it may not be Jackson County-specific is permitted but please use discretion. There are two ways of receiving messages on this list. One is list mode. That is where you get one message at a time. The other is digest mode. That is where you get several messages combined into one. How to subscribe - If you are subscribed in list mode, just send the command "subscribe" to [email protected] If you are subscribed in digest mode, send the command "subscribe" to [email protected] How to unsubscribe - If you are subscribed in list mode, just send the command "unsubscribe" to [email protected] If you are subscribed in digest mode, send the command "unsubscribe" to [email protected] If your e-mail address goes bad or your mailbox fills up, you'll be automatically unsubscribed by the mailing list software after the fourth message in a row bounces back to Rootsweb. I have nothing to do with this. How do I change to digest mode? There are two steps. First, send the command "subscribe" to [email protected] to start receiving digests. Second, send the command "unsubscribe" to [email protected] to discontinue mail mode. How do I change to list mode? There are two steps. First, send the command "subscribe" to [email protected] to start receiving digests. Second, send the command "unsubscribe" to [email protected] to discontinue mail mode. How do I change to NOMAIL mode? There is no formal NOMAIL mode. All you have to do is follow the directions above and unsubscribe when you want the messages to stop, and then when you want them to start again, simply subscribe again. How do I post? If you'd like to post a message so everyone on the mailing list, just send it to [email protected] It will then be sent on to everyone in both mail and digest mode. Don't send it explicitly to both mailing lists. PLEASE submit messages only in plain text and don't submit attachments. Different mail packages send mail in different ways. Please make sure that your mailing is not sending in HTML format. For information on changing your mail to plain text, please check http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/listowners/html-off.htm. Use a helpful subject line like "John Smith, d. 1901, Madison Co.", rather than a generic one like "My Family Line". Even if you decide not to save this message, please try to remember that, like all the lists at Rootsweb, the subscribe and unsubscribe messages go to [email protected] (if list mode) or [email protected] (if digest mode), NOT to the [email protected] address itself. Who's the list manager? I'm Jen Bawden ([email protected]) and I'm the manager of the kyjackso-l list. If you have problems getting unsubscribed from the list or have any other difficulties with the list, write to me, not to the list and I'll see what I can do to help you. Have a great night! Jen
