Could all this be the problem of your mail server and not the problem of our Jackson co.
In.what-ever keeper. (I'm
still not up on all the things we call each other) If some of us are getting this mail
set up right and some of us are getting it wrong, why wouldn't we think the problem
was our server. Just a thought.

Roberta, (and all)
Folks are actually asking that the words "IN-JACKSON" show up when you are
looking at your entire list of mail that has been received--before you ever click on a
mail to see what it is. Many lists do this. I prefer lists set this way. I know that I
regularly delete mail that I might have wanted to see because I don't know that it is
from the Jackson co list and only catch up later when someone adds a title that makes me
aware that it is from the list. (Such as "Lett family in Jackson co IN").
For instance your mail showed up in my new mail as:
New Mail Date Email Address Subject
6/14/2004 rwillet@northand Re:Heading of Jackson Co Items
IF the Jackson co list used subject headings, it would have read
New Mail Date Email Address Subject
6/14/2004 rwillet@northand [IN-Jackson] Re:Heading of Jackson Co
Items
If the list manager does not want to change the list to have the [IN-JACKSON] at the
beginning of each subject line, we could all just agree to put "INJKSN" at the
beggining of our subject lines when we submit an email. That would work for all but
newbies, who wouldn't know to do it...It does limit the number of characters that we
can use, but is a possible solution.

I get "INJACKSON-D-request(a)rootswebb.com in my heading in my list of e-mails
received. What more would you want? Maybe your server does things a little
differntly than mine, but I can recognize my mail right away. Michigan

I second that! I get so much spam I delete anything with no subject
line.
It's just asking for it to open questionalbel mail.
Thanks,

Please, Please, whoever is in charge of this site. Make the subject line
show that this is from Jackson County. I get soooo many span emails that
anything without identification in the subject gets deleted. I really
want
to see the queries. Please help, thanks Linda
