Hi again everyone,
In addition to the guidelines that are implemented effective today,
I've also made some in-house administrative changes you'll probably
notice:
* Taglines are now at the bottom of each message. These are just simple
list helps ~ nothing more.
* In the subject line of each message you'll now see [INGREENE] added.
Even without opening a message, you'll know which list one of our
messages is coming from.
* Digests are now set to be sent every 12 hours. This will help you
receive messages much faster.
* Message limits are set to 20,000 bytes. This helps prevent older
computers from locking up and digest messages from being truncated.
* For the number of people here (268), the list is extremely quiet. To
generate discussion and ensure that answers to questions are seen by
everyone, I've directed that all message replies go back to the list.
If you wish a message to be private, please be sure you change the "To:"
line in the email message form.
Every Sunday all of my surname lists receive the Sunday Morning Coffee,
a newsletter of sorts that I put out. It's my way of having coffee with
everyone on my lists. However, my city, state and county lists don't
receive it unless the individuals wish to. Here's your opportunity...
The Sunday Morning Coffee encompasses social history, how-to's or just
general topics geared toward genealogy, history, and/or geography.
There may even be a short story, again geared toward our love of family
history. No specific surname or region is discussed. It's not a "reply
to" list, and normally only one message per week will come to you, that
being the newsletter on Sunday morning. If you're interested you need
to send an email to <SundayCoffee-subscribe(a)topica.com>, and plan to
join me for coffee on Sunday! :)
I wish you all a FANTASTIC Friday, full of fun! :)
