Genealogy-SIG -- Dayton Microcomputer Association's Genealogy SIG
About Genealogy-SIG	English (USA)
The Genealogy-SIG mailing list is for members of the DMA Genealogy SIG or other genealogists in the greater Dayton area to share their experiences and ask questions related to genealogy. This group is a Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Dayton Microcomputer Association (DMA). The Genealogy SIG usually meets at 7:00pm the first Thursday evening of each month at 119 Valley St., Dayton, OH. Messages posted from an address not a member of the group will be silently discarded. This means that if you are subscribed to the list using First_name.Last_name@some.isp (eg. John.Doe@some.isp), but you post a message from an account Last_nameFirst_initial@some.isp (eg. doej@some.isp), that message will not be accepted even though one address may be an alias for the other. Also, messages from new members will be held for moderator approval, so they may not appear on the list for a few hours. Subsequent messages will probably appear nearly instantaneously. Mailman inserts the list name [Genealogy-SIG] in the subject automatically for messages sent to the list. Administrative messages, such as the welcome message sent to new subscribers, don't do that. Also, note that replies will go to the list, rather than just to the person who originated the message. You may change your subscription info for this mailing list at www.dma.org/mailman/listinfo/genealogy-sig. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the Genealogy-SIG Archives.
