I'm confused. If I send messages to the Lists I manage, and subscribers receive the messages, why do they need to "register"? If the subscribers "see" my posts, what else is needed. George W.

I've seen some pretty strange ones, including a domain named "Q" but never even heard of all numbers. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist though. David E.

Sure, it would be something even a semi-skilled web developer could do. And I have very skilled software engineers who work on my many products. And right now, they are all working on higher priority tasks. Maybe someday.

Well. Your right about the laws. Genealogy is public data. Far as admin vs ancestry I would asume ancestry would be liable to protect its volunteers since we did not add the objective content. Far as privacy goes please explain that as the lists are public read only data that any one could be liable for something they did not post. Just some thoughts on the subject. Also. There were some similar genealogical rules made in CA also people should be familiar with.

Thanks Delores. However, even though I see my user name in the right hand upper corner of the page I bookmarked, it does not give a list of those. I admin. And, I don’t have to sign in. So, that’s o.k. I guess. I am still able to do everything I need to on this one page.. ????

Something that has not been discussed here is the General Data Protection Regulation, a law passed by the European Union that goes into effect on 25 May. This law has been seriously discussed on the Genealogy-DNA list, if you want to see the discussion, visit the archives. This law covers the privacy of every citizen of the EU, on any computer anywhere in the world. My sense is, that is why our list subscribers need to manage their own accounts, and most tools we had, as admins in the past, have been transferred to our subscribers. My understanding is that if something happens that violates the privacy of a subscriber, as admins, we could be held responsible. If, however, only the subscribers can subscribe themselves to the lists, manage their options and unsubscribe themselves, they are the responsible party. There are three things we, as admins/owners can do: put individuals on moderation, put the whole list on moderation, or ban an address from posting to a list. I would think twice about doing things for a subscriber that they should be doing for themselves, through their accounts. Marleen Van Horne

Same here. I wondered why my query to my McBee list had no replies, since I had gotten no notice of anything in pending. There it was. After releasing it, I checked the settings again: yes, set to Accept immediately. I too tried to remove the [] in after experiencing what Gene did: "When I clicked the Save changes button an error occurred. An error occured: [u'[]'] "When I delete the [] in Acceptable aliases the change is accepted, and the [] comes back." If the "Acceptable aliases" isn't needed, why not just remove it?

Sue, I bookmarked my Subscriptions page, which says Mailman Settings, with my User Name beside it, and on the far right side of the page. This page contains all of the Lists I am subscribed to, including the ones I'm the Admin/Owner for. From that page, you can get to any of your lists without signing in each time. Yes, the options on the individual Lists page are different, and you can only subscribe people via the Mass sub option. It is an entirely different interface, than we're used to.

Hi, Anne, I sat down today to compose a note to go out to subscribers of the lists I manage.  I recall you asked us to do this earlier, but I haven't been able to rediscover the message in which you asked us to do that. I find that there are some facts I would like to convey to subscribers that I'm not certain of myself. I assume my message should announce that the list is back up after modernization and security upgrades, and that I should mention the links in the footer.  I can also include a link to http://home.rootsweb.ancestry.com/listindexes/listsHelp I can also link to http://home.rootsweb.ancestry.com/listindexes/setupmail, but I'm not sure what I should say about it.  Is this registration *mandatory* for all subscribers, or only recommended for ease of navigation, or a convenience for those who want to be able to manipulate their own subscription settings?  I am considering telling subscribers that they don't need to do anything at all if they want to continue as they have been, but that the new system has convenience features that are only available to those who have gone through the setup process. Have I forgotten anything important? -- Dan Treadway

I prefer the laptop. I never get lost data from power blips, also being off grid, I dont have power blips. Being on solar is so much better than grid power and when it storms we don't have any problems.   Desk tops are so cumbersome and laptops have so many more advantages than a desk top can have . And no need for battery back up. ;) On 04/11/2018 06:23 AM, Gene Phillips wrote: > I'm actually considering getting a all-in-one desktop (like having a 27" tablet sitting on your desk).

I'm actually considering getting a all-in-one desktop (like having a 27" tablet sitting on your desk). It has 2 HDMI ports which means I could have 3 monitors instead of the 2 I have now.

People are doing that more and more at work, even with screens that are SO wide it's scary.
