I deeply apologize for this, however, I have a unique problem that I cannot solve. Maybe you good people can give me a clue to my trouble. Short version of story: virus detection program (mcafee) caused Email not to work. Uninstalled the virus software. Not all Email is affected. I suspect a problem with my computer. Will someone reply to this message (no need to add a message, unless you wish to do so ... maybe you've experienced this). Also, if not too much trouble, send an email outside the rootsweb system directly to me at [email protected] (please note underscore character between ed and reed). Again, sorry, and even more importantly thank you for you kindness and help.
