Nothing new, just a reminder of PML purpose and how it works.
The system is clumsy, but it provides pointers to information
which might not be readily available elsewhere. Appologies for any
confusion when I leave out details.
PML stands for Personal Mailing List. As a former Rootsweb Sponsor, I
receive notifications of any mention of certain surnames appearing in any
Rootsweb mailing list or board. At present this perk is no longer
available.
We are not allowed to cross-post without written permission from the
poster -- a process which is too complicated to be practical for me.
In the hopes that some present subscriber or future searcher will find a
clue, I put the name, date and location in the subject to identify the
post and include the date, poster's name, mailing list and subject in the
message, to enable any interested person to find the original post in the
Rootsweb Interactive or Threaded archives.
Sometimes there is a great deal of information about an allied family or
place -- but often there is only a name from an index.
If it doesnt look interesting, just delete the message -- you can always
go back and search.
Successful searching--

Patricia,
I don't understand how this mailist works. I always see a header, but
never the body of the message. Does it exist elsewhere?
thanks,
