Good morning. Just to let you know a couple of things abt Rootsweb lists (applies to most lists I have seen)...you can't send any attachments through the list. It won't work. The only way to send data from a file (should you have reason to) is to insert the text into your message. Also, this list is set to have all msgs sent by hitting REPLY, to the List. If you don't want something to go to the whole list you will have to type the correct address in the "To" field. At least this is so for most email programs. Most smaller lists are set this way so that everyone can see the postings. On large lists where lots of replies can be a nuisance the listowner will use the other option so that replies won't go to everyone. I thought this bit of info might explain why your posts go to the whole list. You can always use the option of writing directly to someone. I can change this function, but we are still a small list. Let me know if any of you have a problem on this. I can switch if need be. I like to see the activity myself, and if you understand the system you can make your own adjustments. Thanks, Christina Ninah@ix.netcom.com
