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
Hello List members,
My name is Ian Marr and I have been the list administrator for some time.
However, due to mounting health problems, I am forced to give up this role.
I have completed the task required to "orphan" the list, so it is now
available for any of you to take the reins, so to speak.
If you would like to become the administrator for this list, simply follow
the steps details below:
1. Go to http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/
2. Enter the list name in the "Find a Mailing List" box and click on FIND
3. A list of potential matches will be displayed (left hand side of page).
Click on the name you entered in 2. above
4. Details for the list will then be displayed
5. At the bottom of this page, it should say "This list is adoptable". If
not, try again later (or it may already have been adopted).
6. If it does invite adoption, click on the "Visit the Mailing List Request
Form" link
7. On the next page click on "Request a Mailing List - New or Adoption"
8. Complete the details and submit the form.
You will receive a confirmation e-mail when the necessary behind the scenes
actions have been completed. You may then access the list as administrator,
using your e-mail address and password specified in 8. above and make
whatever changes you wish to the way the list operates.
Regards,
Ian MARR
