ROOTSWEB MAILING LISTS |
| Rootsweb created mailing lists for
genealogists researching common subjects to network with
others researching the same subject. Postings to the list
will automatically be sent to all subscribers of that
list. You must subscribe in order to send and receive
postings from the Wells or Huntington County list. This
service is provided free of charge by Rootsweb. Rootsweb's existence is dependent on volunteer County Coordinators. Learn more about Rootsweb by visiting their website. To see the
current list of all mailing lists available, click here. The mailing lists are
available in two modes, mail and digest. |
| MAIL mode, where every post is sent to
subscribers as a separate piece of e-mail, and, DIGEST mode, where about twenty posts are batched together and then sent to the subscribers. Digest produces less clutter in your mailbox, but replying to an individual message may require a little extra effort. |

| The Mailing Lists have been inundated recently with SPAM. Most SPAM emails come directly to me. Mailing to the lists requires subscribing. Mass emailers often use worms to dig through web sites for email addresses. Hopefully this will at least slow them down a little. |
