Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Rootsweb mailing lists are automatic and are
managed by list robots. These robots take care
of subscription requests and bouncing
(rejected) emails.
The most frequently asked question of
subscribers is:
*****************
"Why have I been unsubscribed?"
Answer:
If your list mail cannot be delivered for any
reason, the list robot unsubscribes you after
a certain number of failed attempts.
(For the CHURCHWELL list the maximum
member bounce score is: 3)
This can happen for a number of reasons - some
of the more common reasons are that your
mailbox is full, your spam filter is blocking
the list mail, your ISP is blocking list mail
from Rootsweb, you have put an automatic
responder on your email....
If you were unsubscribed and did not wish to
be taken off the mailing list, simply subscribe
again. However be forewarned that if whatever
caused the list robot to unsubscribe you the
first time is still happening, it will simply
remove you again after a specific number of
bounces--3--(rejected list mail to your email
address).
But as a courtesy to all CHURCHWELL
listers, I can re-subscribe you manually. Just
let me know.
******************
Other questions asked are:
"How do I unsubscribe?"
Answer:
Simply follow the instructions at the bottom
of every list mail message.
******************
"Why is my mail not getting to the mailing
list?"
Answer:
Make sure that you are sending from the same
email you are subscribed under. The list robot
does not recognize names. It only recognizes
email addresses. If your sending email address
is not on the subscriber list, your email will
be rejected.
******************
"Why am I not getting list mail?"
Answer:
Check the HelpDesk notices in the yellow box
for announcements about any technical problems
with Rootsweb mail.
http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/
If you don't find the answer to your problem on
the HelpDesk page you need to check if you are
still subscribed to the list. You can get a
list of all your subscribed to mailing lists
from Password Central:
http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com/
If Password Central doesn't include all lists
to which you should be subscribed, re-subscribe
to any lists that are missing from your
subscribed lists by sending a new e-mail to:
LISTNAME-request(a)rootsweb.com (replacing the
word LISTNAME with the actual list name).
Put only the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject and
message body of your e-mail.

Hello Listers:
Any concerns/questions, please contact:
CHURCHWELL-admin(a)rootsweb.com.
To subscribe/unsubscribe:
CHURCHWELL-request(a)rootsweb.com.
To subscribe in Digest mode:
CHURCHWELL-D-request(a)rootsweb.com.
To send a message/post to the List:
CHURCHWELL(a)rootsweb.com.
>>>>>> FYI Only <<<<<<
Mode = manner/method/way.
There are two modes in which to subscribe:
1. The -L mode. The "regular" mode now. All
regular subscribers receive posts/messages made
to the list as separate/individual emails.
2. The -D mode. The "digest" mode now. All
digest subscribers receive posts/messages made
to the list as one BIG email.
....
If you previously subscribed to the list in
both -L and -D modes using the same email
address you will find that you are *no longer*
subscribed in Digest mode.
The new software doesn't permit the same
address to be subscribed in both -L and -D
modes.
Therefore, if you wish to receive both modes,
you will need to subscribe to the Digest using
a different email address.
Please give me a contact should anyone need
further elaboration.
....
Regards,

I would like to be a part of this group. Someone said that Ada Churchwell was a relative. I believe her twin sister was married to my grandfather, Arlie. Any info would be great. Thanks
