I sent a posting of my Kentucky Campbell ancestors, beginning with
Alexander, some hours ago and did not see it on the list yet. I have been
getting error messages from several sources today and don't know if my
posting made it or not.
Would someone please let me know?
Thanks,

Hi, Folks,
It appears that the email server at Genealogy Online (a.k.a.
emcee.com or
genealogy.org) received Suzanne's message about her Kentucky Campbells
after her message asking if anyone had received the post. Despite the
fact that she posted the Kentucky Campbells message first. Internet email
doesn't always take the same route, as this case shows.
I'm not sure why there was such a discrepancy between the date and time
the messages were sent and the date and time they were resent by the list.
Maybe the messages took a scenic tour of the Internet before they reached
Genealogy Online. ;-) (There have been no messages from the system
administrator about the program that handles the email, so I have to
assume that it has been functional all weekend.)
