Greetings listers
Some people are unaware how to unsubscribe or post messages.
please read your confirmation email carefully. It's clearly written
about this.
To post a message send it to:
(list name)-l(a)rootsweb.com
Do not include the (REQUEST) part which should only be used when
joining or leaving the list. Messages sent using the request part bounce
as the server thinks your requesting to join or leave the list but
incorrectly.
Also please remember to put in a subject line. Some members use
Digest mode and a subject title gives Digest users an idea of what the
message is about.
Make sure you click on the new mail icon in your email software. Not
reply from a previous message posted to the list.
If you are joining or leaving a list post as below:
To: (list name)-l-request(a)rootsweb.com
Subject: (subscribe) or (unsubscribe)
AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE.
The main cause of problems unsubscribing are people using the
incorrect address. Do not use reply from a posted message.
This may unsubscribe the message poster instead of yourself. Turn
off taglines and signature attachments. These taglines/signatures
can result in your request to unsubscribe being rejected by the server.
The second main cause of problems unsubscribing are people putting in
unnecessary information. eg please remove me from the list as I'm
going on a short holiday to Brazil for 10 days then put me back on.
This will likely result in your email address staying on the list.
Happy Hunting all
