This has been going on for a week or two now. There wasn't much point in posting this Administrivial note until now, when the people impacted would be able to read it. For the past several days, AOL (and its related domains, such as Netscape/CS/WMConnect) has been refusing delivery of all (or at least most) messages from RootsWeb. Initially, there were many bounces, and you may have bounced off your other RootsWeb lists. (You may have bounced off THIS list, but if so, you won't be seeing this message. That, and I only saw one person bounce off of ROOTS-L, and I'll be adding them back momentarily.) Here's the important thing: once RootsWeb realized this was happening, messages to AOL have been set aside and queued. So MOST of the messages to you did NOT bounce. Instead, they'll be being delivered over the next few (several?) days. (Er, I'm told there are 100,000 of them! This could take awhile.) Once that dust settles, if you're the obsessive type and want ALL the digests, make a note of which are missing and follow the directions at the top of each digest for receiving missing issues. Do wait a few days, though, until the delivery of the old stuff dries up. No need to overload the system further! You can also read old messages at http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/ROOTS/2006-01 Meanwhile, you were definitely missed, we're glad to have you back, and NO, we didn't gossip about you while you were out of the room. ;-) Karen karen@mtpinos.com
