The new Rootsweb mailing list system (Mailman) has gone into effect beginning today and continuing for the next couple of weeks, staggered alphabetically according to the following schedule: Thursday, August 17 - Lists A-C Monday, August 21 - Lists D-F Tuesday, August 22 - Lists G-I Wednesday, August 23 - Lists J-L Thursday, August 24 - Lists M-O Monday, August 28 - Lists P-R Tuesday, August 29 - Lists S-U Wednesday, August 30 - Lists V-Z You may check this link for any changes to the timetable: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/migrate_sched.html While the "migration" of the lists to a new server should process uneventfully for listmembers, there are a few points that need to be covered: 1. AOL users (and possibly some other ISPs), please check your spam folders and, if you find list mail held as spam, you will need to be sure to click the *THIS IS NOT SPAM* link to send the list mail to your current mailbox. This will "train" the system to understand that mail from this new server is not spam. 2. If you are subscribed to both L & D mail modes of this list, the new system is not set up to send both to the same email address. If you want to be subscribed in both modes (many subscribe to both -- regular mail mode to read and delete and digest to file and save), it will be necessary to use another email address for your digest mail. It is my understanding that if you are subscribed to the list in both mail modes with the same address, you will be dropped from the digest list roster, so if this happens to you, please resubscribe with another address (Yahoo might be a good choice for an alternate email address). This will not effect those who subscribe in either of the mail modes exclusively. ******************************************** I'm Still reading up on this change... So please bear with me if problems show up.. There might be other changes so I'll try to keep everyone informed Sonny O'Haver
