I want to apologize to the email list Archives search engine. I found a copy of the Rootsweb email I was searching for in my Outlook archives. With the exact date Dec 7 2016, I went back to the Rootsweb list archives. Posts from that month were missing. The search engine did the best it could under the circumstances.

Have you used the new RW email archives search engine? Even when I knew exactly what I was trying to find and limited the search to one surname file, it was a frustrating experience... no good way to narrow searches. The old archives search engine program and format was more efficient.... a wonderful resource. The primary advantage of social media is the ability to post images. It had been possible to post images on Message Boards which were gatewayed to the email lists. Now that is inconenient. I posted ancestors photos on my Facebook in a public photo album with the same title as my public WorldConnect tree. Then I could insert URLs to the ancestors photos in the Gedcom I uploaded.... Before Ancestry disabled the ability to update our gedcoms. "Uploading updated family trees" on the WorldConnect message board. Replies to the thread were disabled. http://boards.rootsweb.com/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=14333&p=topics.rw.worldconnect. One disadvantage of social media is the lack of a way to save posts to your computer for future reference. A Facebook one name genealogy group I belong to has many members, but only post in a year.

To all who are working to restore Rootsweb functions-Thank you for your efforts. To all, I wish you a very Happy and fruitful New Year. I have been a listowner since June 1998. That is 20 years and 6 months ago. About 4 years BA. Before Acquisition by Ancestry. A while back (in 2018) I signed up for a new administrative page. Learning how to navigate it has been challenging. Being a subscriber to list owners has been helpful. I was pleased to see addresses for all 200 plus subscribers, over 800 banned addresses, and date browsable archives dating back 20 years and 6 months were available Questions: ➢ When the archives are sanitized and restored, will the key word search function be available? ➢ Is any work to restore full function to World Connect being done? ➢ Will the PML be restored? ➢ When Ancestry acquired Rootsweb we were informed that if we had paid Rootsweb for a mailing list we were entitled to three FreePages. I’ve used two. How do I get my third one? Joel Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Used to be a listowner set replies to list, to be sent to the list not to the person who posted in the first place. Apparently some of my lists are set to reply to the list and maybe others are set to reply to the one who posted. Like privately. Having hard time figuring how to say this. Maybe it is a moot point.

I made a mistake.  The header I posted before was a BCC to myself.  It was not the post from MailMan. I see now that the MailMan post header does have a Reply-To in it, and of course it works. header For list people the image above is also here: http://www.mflan.com/temp/header.jpg When you hit Reply the new reply e-mail also has the Reply-To as the list address, so all is good with that list.

I did that because I suspected the header inline picture would not go through to the list and I wanted Mary to get that.  I think I was right - the list did not allow the inline picture on the original post.

I did an experiment. I deleted the reply to header in your last message to this list. When I replied it was addressed to you. That's the way it should work. Normally it will reply to the list.
