>> 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....
