I SENT A POST TO THE LIST, BUT IT DIDN'T APPEAR ON THE LIST. WHAT WENT WRONG? You might have sent it to the wrong list or the wrong address. Remember that the "-request" address for the list is for computer commands and is not the address for posts to the list. Check the header of a piece of list mail to see the correct name and address for the list. It should be in this form: LISTNAME-L@rootsweb.com (All posts should go to the "L" list address even if you are subscribed to the digest format.) Are you still getting the list mail? If not, you might have been unsubbed. Use Password Central to see what lists you are subscribed to. If you are still getting the list mail, but your post did not appear on it, then you might have a problem with the subject line of your post or with your e-mail address. Sometimes if you leave the subject line blank, the computer will take it as a misdirected sub or unsub request and reject the post by forwarding it to the list administrator instead of the list. If you begin the subject line with ARCHIVE or even AR the computer thinks you are asking for archives and sends that to the list admin. Try changing the subject line and reposting the Message. You must post to a closed list using the exact address that you used when you subscribed. Check a piece of list mail and see what address the computer used to send you the list mail and compare it to the address you are now using as your return (reply to) address. They must be EXACTLY the same. Any changes in capitalization, additional characters or words or even an extra space and the computer will not recognize you. If you have more than one address and wish to post from both, contact your list administrator to put the second address on the accept list. Addresses on this list will be able to post to a list, but will not be sent the list mail.
