I borrowed this message from another administrator....thank you.
It is the beginning of the summer vacation season in some areas. Please keep
in mind that your inbox may fill up in your absence. When it does become
full (each email provider has different capacities), messages from this list and
other email will begin to "bounce." Friends and business associates may
wonder if your email address is still valid. This list will tolerate bounces for a
time, but will automatically unsubscribe you if too many bounces are received.
To help filling your email inbox, I suggest the following options:
1) Subscribe in Digest Mode -- this sends one email message per day from this
list to your in box. The one message has all the day's messages with a table
of contents at the beginning of the message. (Disclaimer: If there are a LOT
of message in a 24 hour period, it could generate two digest emails, but I
have not seen this happen in 8+ years of administering this surname list and
several others.) Be sure to unsubscribe from the list in Regular mode or you'll
get every message twice! If your inbox fills, you could still become
automatically unsubscribed, but it typically will take longer.
2) Unsubscribe from this list during the time you are gone. You will not get
any email from this list -- only from other sources. You can then
re-subscribe to the list upon your return.
Whatever your choice, remember that you can search the list's archives for
relevant messages sent during your absence or messages sent before you
subscribed to the list.
Thank You
