Hi,

Do you mean the message boards or the mailing lists e.g. Lancsgen?

I mean Lancsgen. Should have made myself clearer, sorry.

Hi,

As far as I remember you just send a PLAIN TEXT (not HTML) message to
LANCSGEN-L-request[AT]rootsweb.com

In the subject line type subscribe and in the message body only type the word subscribe nothing else.

If you are still having trouble try sending an e-mail to the List owner at
Lancsgen-admin[AT]rootsweb.com .  I am sure Lynne will help all she can. 

It`s a great list.

Regards,
Mo

Hi - I am on Lancsgen - and it has changed to 'gateway' whatever that means - I only know that somehow the messages come a different route of something.  But I haven't been getting all mine from them, but have seen lots from members saying that they are having problems.  This is the admin address as you may well be better going that route - Jackie

Mo and Jackie

Many thanks to you both for your suggestions. I have now written to the Admin section of LancsGen and hope to hear from them soon.
