Dear Listers, Have you ever sent a message to the list and then waited . . . and waited . . . and waited for it to appear? Sometimes it never does because the message was sent in Rich Text or HTML and RootsWeb's computers couldn't process it. :-( To ensure all of your messages reach the list, please post to the list in Plain Text only. There are instructions at <http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/listadmins/plaintext.html> in case you're not sure how to do this. Best wishes, Lynne List Admin.
