In the past few days, the Rootsweb server which both the SHAMROCK and Waterford lists were housed on had some major problems, which in turn caused some problems with how the list operated. Some of you contacted me privately about why messages or commands did not go through. While it seems that the problems have now been fixed by Rootsweb, some "leftover" problems are still causing some minor difficulties. What you may have noticed in the past few days was that messages did not go through immediately, the prepend to the list messages was missing and that temporarily commercial taglines were added to list messages. If you sent in a command to subscribe or unsubscribe it was not immediately acted upon by the computer, so you may have sent in additional commands. What may still be happening is if you have recently -unsubscribed- from this list, you may have been added back by the computer. You may be getting both regular and digest versions as some subscribers have been added or unsubscribed -- if this is happening you can just unsub from whichever version you do not want, or write to me and I'll assist you. If you are having any other problems which you think may be coming from this list problem, please write to me privately. I think most of the problems can be fixed easily. The only ones I can't fix easily are those who got unsubscribed, as Rootsweb has said that has happened to few people. These problems affected every list housed on the 6 server, so you may be experiencing these difficulties from other lists also. In that case, please contact the listowner for that list. Thank you for your cooperation, and write to me off list if you are having a problem.
