I had noticed that since September I had not received any messages from Mattingly-L. My query to Dan reveals that my Internet provider has apparently been rejecting all e-mail from Rootsweb for reasons I don't understand, hence, the system kicked me off the list. I am receiving all other e-mail without problem. At any rate I have contacted my provider and insisted that the situation be remedied at once or I will find a new provider. In the meantime, I suppose if anyone wants to contact me for any reason it will be necessary to do so through my regular e-mail address. If any massive breakthoughs occur on the family name, will someone PLEASE let me know? I'm in a dark room for a while at least. See? You never know how much you'll miss the folks on Mattingly-L until they're gone!
