Well, list, this double message problem is not just our problem. According to messages on my Newbie-Listowner's list, other people are having the same problem in the mail mode only and it is intermittent. No one is saying what the problem is yet, but hopefully it's being worked on as I haven't heard anything from rootsweb who is the server for these lists. SO ...... my suggestion is to post away. If you're a subscriber who HATES double message, you may want to think about unsubscrbing in the mail mode and then subscribing in the digest mode until this gets cleared up. Or if you're like me, I'm going to wait it out and see what happens. It usually will take care of itself - now you understand I'm no expect, but I think it's the way you hold your tongue that day - ha. We are growing, growing, growing. Thank you all very much - I'm so proud of all of us and let's keep posting and trying to connect. I promise I won't be as verbose as we go along as I am now but rootsweb suggests that we keep up as much posting as possible the first few weeks the list is up to keep new subscribers coming on list at least interested and know we're alive. So the more you guys post, the less you'll hear from me. hint,hint, hint..... Thanks, Glenda
