It is affecting several lists..There are FIVE servers and only one is down at the present time: affecting a relative small number of lists... But, on the other hand, this list has been very slow the last few months. As your posting has gotten posted, it is not an equipment failure, just a slow list..... John Towles Morris --------- John and others: This List and all of the others which are on Lists 5 have been completely down for almost a week. I was told that the Lists 5 lists are among those who usually generate more mail than the other lists do. That's why I have had almost no mail at all now since Lists 5 went down. It is coming back now, but coming slowly. The best way to keep up with what's going on is to go to Rootsweb.com and click on "Contacting the Help Desk" under "HELP". They post what is happening there. Velma
