Responding to Mailing Lists & Message Boards

Dear WATERHOUSE List & Boards,

There seems to some sort of misunderstanding regarding the posting of messages to the List and Board. From what I gather Margaret wanted to contact a board poster directly and was attempting to obtain an email address. She apparently discovered that this person had a special paid subscription which specifically protects her email address from readers' view.

This in no way would impede Margaret from posting her information openly to the Board which would then be gatewayed to the List. Of course, since the gateway only goes from Board to List, if she wants to read any potential Mailing List replies Margaret would need to subscribe to the Mailing List. She would do that by sending email to:

WATERHOUSE-L-request@rootsweb.com

with just the word 'subscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message. There is no cost to post messages to boards or lists, nor is there any cost to subscribe.

If the misunderstanding is mine please let me know. Thank you for your participation on the WATERHOUSE List & Board.

Bob WATEROUS,
WATERHOUSE List & Board Admin
