Subject: [Irish-American] ADMIN MSG: Milestone met by list


> Today our 500th lister subscribed to the Irish American mailing list. I
> originated this list at the end of April 2002 and the membership has
> slowly increased and today went over the 500 number. This has been a good
> list and one very easy to manage, thanks to all our wonderful subbers.
>
> So, to celebrate reaching 500, I would like to start a Roll Call but I
> think we should wait 24 hours before starting to give people the chance to
> switch their subscription from L to D, if they prefer. As most of you
> know with the L subscription, you get each message as posted to the list
> and with the D subscription, you get a bunch of messages about once day.
> Roll Calls typically generate a lot of posts so if you want to change your
> subscription method, now is the time to do it.
>
> How to changes;
> 1. Send a message to:
> Put 'unsubscribe' in subject and in body (without quote marks)
> 2. Send a message to:
> Put 'subscribe' in subject and in body (without quote marks)
>
> How to post a Roll Call:
> Try to keep one surname per Roll Call.
> Put Surname in Subject
> In the body, the minimum information should include:
> Where in Ireland family is from, if known.
> Where in the USA they settled
> Timelines, such as when born
> Who did they marry?
> Children?
>
> The best Roll Calls are short and to the point and only have two or three
> generations the most. If your roll call is long and very involved, it
> really won't get read. Better to break down your information and send it
> by generation in several posts.
>
> Good luck and congratulations for making this list one of the best I have
> ever belonged to....
