In checking the list archive, in response to a query sent to me direct by Sherry, from the Millenia Corporation, I have found that five messages show in the list archive as having been posted to the list, since the changeover. When the lists have been changed over to the new software, existing subscribers did not receive notification of the changeover automatically from the mailing list software, as far as I am aware. List Administrators were automatically sent notices advising as each list was changed over, but not list subscribers. That is the best advice that I can give at present, as the List Administrator. -- Bret Busby List Administrator. Armadale West Australia ..............

Bret- Are you saying that we, the subscribers, are no longer subscribed since the changeover? Well, we can re-subscribe just fine, but I sure wish either the operators - owners of the new servers (or you) had certainly alerted us. I *never* read messages online; I auto download them. I am disappointed this list was not run at least to the same level Millennia runs theirs. Do you (or the new owners of the new servers) intend to put us back on the subscribers list, or do we need to subscribe again? I would prefer not to be subscribed twice. Thank you.

Robert, Obviously you're subscribed since you're getting messages to and from the group!

You are in the subscriber base, Robert. Your post distributed to everyone on the mailing list.
