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
Good Morning (again)! Sorry for any confustion and the
necessity of a second email. I was not paying attention to
what I posted in the last email, and put some incorrect
information in the last one. Please notify ME at
lrobarge(a)charter.net if you have any questions or problems
on our lists.

This actually does not apply to the lists I have created.
I seldom have to remind subscribers that surname lists are
for the discussion of genealogy related topics only but I
have been asked to pass this along so here it is!

The following message was sent to all Rootsweb List
administrators, and we were directed to pass it along to
list members:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
>From Rootsweb Staff:
"This is a period of intense political times when emotions
and opinions will run high in many directions.
"The simple issue is that RootsWeb is for genealogical
research and not for political discussions. Equivalent
political situations have been known to cause significant
disturbances and needed intervention by admins and
occasionally by Rootsweb staff."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We the list administrators have been directed by RootsWeb
to reinforce where necessary to our subscribers the basis
of the mailing lists and their provision by RootsWeb to
users, and, where necessary, take actions to maintain the
focus of mailing lists.
Therefore, any references to the present political
situation will result in being unsubscribed from the list.
Your anticipated cooperation is appreciated.
Let's keep these lists as a "haven" - a place where we can
go to do our research, and where we can leave the outside
world "outside". If you choose to discuss the current
situation with list member friends, please do so directly
and not on the list.
Thanks!
