On August 15th., there will be minor changes made to this
mailing list.
Two major changes include the subscribers who get this mailing in digest mode. Currently,
there are 28 individuals who receive the digest.
First, Are you subscribed to both the regular and digest modes of this list with a single
email address?
The new list management system does not support a single email address being subscribed to
both the mail (regular delivery) and the digest at the same time.
This means you will no longer be able to receive both the digest and the regular delivery
(-L) versions of the list at the same email address. If you are currently subscribed to
both -L and -D with the same address, you will only continue to be subscribed to
regular delivery when the list is migrated. You will need to subscribe to the list digest
with a different email address. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Secondly,Digest subscribers will notice a small difference in the layout, volume and issue
numbers of the list digests.
The "-L" is being dropped from the "official" list name.
This means the "from" address your mailing list emails come from will be
slightly different- ListName(a)rootsweb.com vs. the current ListName-L @rootsweb.com. You
may have to adjust your spam filters or put the new address on your "accept"
list to prevent it from being caught in your "junk" folder.
This may sound like a big change, but it doesn't have to change the way you use the
list.
Here's why:
- You will still be able to send messages to the list using the
"ListName-L(a)rootsweb.com" email address you use today. Additionally, you can
choose to drop the "-L" and send your messages to ListName(a)rootsweb.com. Both
addresses will work after the list has been migrated.
- You will still be able to subscribe and unsubscribe to the mail or digest mode by
sending your request to ListName-L-request(a)rootsweb.com or ListName-D-request(a)rootsweb.com
as you do today. You will also be
able to unsubscribe from the mail or digest mode by sending your "unsubscribe"
message to INADAMS-request(a)rootsweb.com.
Thanks for your time,
