Subject: [MD-CEM] From List Mom - Regarding Open Gateway

Dear List Members,

For those of you who do not know what the messages mean, that are being
posted on the list, which starts with "This is a Message Board Post that
is gatewayed to this mailing list" Following is the explanation.

Due to the lack of activity on the list, 26 posting since Dec 2004, I
opened the Gateway between the Maryland Cemeteries Rootsweb Board and
the MD-Cemeteries mailing list. Doing this does two things..one for
the list members and one for me...

For the list members it causes additional activity, which in turn will
give you a better chance in finding the answer you are looking for, that
caused you to join the MD-Cemeteries list in the first place.

For me it helps in my list housekeeping. When there is no activity on
the list for a period of time, the list of dead e-mail address becomes
long because there have no postings to help bounce them off.

Every time there is a posting, I am notified regarding bouncing e-mail
addresses that for some reason are not reaching the intended party and
the system for some reason cannot remove them. It is much easier for me
to delete 1 or 2 a day than it is to delete 30 or 40+ after months of
in-activity on the list.

If the list again become active and we decide the Open Gateway mail is
to much, I will close it again.

Know that your regular postings to the list will continue as always, the
Open Gateway will just be in addition to.

I thank each of you for your support and understanding.

Kathleen Burnett
List Mom
