I average 250 -400 e-mail messages a day. i have over 14,000 names in my data base. I did not get this acomplished by deleteing messages without reading them. Just a thought. I try to contribute a lot to the Floyd & Patrick County List. and the sysop is a great person to work with. we all work together and are well aware that the subject headings are an important part of archive search. but if you hang in there you will get a lot from these two list Patrick & Floyd. BTW what names are you looking for. you may find a lot out if you'l leave us some of your names to work with. Most of us are cousins wheather we know it or not.. Huggs ..Rena ---------- From: Ann Moore <amoore@networksplus.net> To: VAPATRIC-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Subject Headings Date: Friday, August 14, 1998 7:03 PM Please do not place such headings as "Unidentified Object" or "Searching" in the subject matter. Today I received 190 messages. I did not open those with that subject line. Maybe I am missing something, but then so are you. After all, we are all searching and we all have surnames that we are searching for. Please put in a surname. You will probably get better results. Thanks. Ann Moore 5209 SW 32nd Ter.
