USING ROOTSWEB SURNAME MAILING LISTS

How the lists work: RootsWeb's servers maintain a list of the email addresses of those who request to be 'subscribers'. When someone sends a message to the list's address it is resent by the RootsWeb server to each address of that list's current subscribers. With a few exceptions, the CCFHA members who have email addresses are subscribers to CORSON-L.
