I live in California, many posts are sent from NY. Rootsweb sends messages to list admins once a day that there are posts being held for the admin's review and release to the list and they do so over night, not when the post is sent. So, if you sent a post around 3pm NY time, it is held and then I don't get a message from Rootsweb that it is being held till I get up in the morning Pacific standard time. I am retired so I don't get up before 9am PST, noon in NY. So, if you posted a email to the list, please either wait before sending another or better yet write me and I can then check to see if and why it is being held. Okay, you are probably wondering, 'why is Rootsweb holding my posts'. Well, automatic holds are for attachments or very lengthy posts. Other holds maybe because I have you on hold status because your email address sent out a spam email. Hey, I have my other email address (pacbell.net) on hold for that reason. The lengthy emails are usually caused by repeating old messages to the list, instead of cutting the stuff from the repeated message that has nothing to do with what the reply is about. Those on digest format really need to cut most of the digest. So, please DO NOT resend a message that has not posted. Write me and I will check. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA, list admin http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
