Hi Folks:

The following message is posted for the benefit of "new" members of this
ACADIAN-CAJUN Mailing List and will be re-posted on an ongoing basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------

ALL messages posted to this Mailing List are archived by Rootsweb for an
indefinite period of time and can be viewed in "chronological" order, or in
thread, "by Subject:" order.

Because of this, I cannot over-emphasize the importance of using a brief
but descriptive "subject" when you're posting messages (or replies) on the
Mailing List.It is also important to also use the _original_ "subject" when
replying to a message in order to insure that your reply gets "attached" to
the original message thread.

This service is provided for YOUR/OUR benefit... so let's all work together
to make it successful. When posting a message to the Mailing List, please
don't use a vague "subject heading" like...'Need Help'. Instead use a brief
but descriptive "Subject" which best describes the content of your message.
It's not a bad idea to use the surname you are seeking information on, in
the subject. For example...
"Subject: Cyr; Need information regarding Pierre Jr."

As well, if you are subscribed in the "Digest Mode", be certain to remove
the Digest
Reference Number in the "Subject" column, when replying to messages on the
Mailing List, and replace same with a brief/descriptive "Subject" based on the
content of your reply.

Many thanks for your anticipated cooperation.

PS: As noted at the outset of this message, ALL messages posted to the
Mailing List are automatically archived and CANNOT BE REMOVED FROM THE
ARCHIVES.
