Hi In case you hadn't noticed, the mail has been a little skimpy lately! The server this list uses at Rootsweb had some issue and was off-line. It's fixed now and up and running. Any mail that was sent to the list while it was broken should now come through to the list (Rootsweb held all the mail while they fixed the server, and no, I have no idea how they do that!). Usually if there is a problem Rootsweb will have the current mail come through, and feed the held mail in a little at a time so nothing is overloaded. The digests might be a little confused during this period, so remember to check the archives if you are concerned you might have missed something. Here is a link for the archives to show July's mail in chronological order: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/PERTHSHIRE/2004-07?mode=chronological&with=names&with=dates&.submit=Redisplay&.cgifields=with Pam Arnold List Admin
