E-mail List

Updated 17-Feb-1999


email28.gif (1209 bytes)   The E-mail List for McWh*rters is an electronic mailing list for the discussion and sharing of information regarding the McWh*rter surname and its variations in any place and at any time.

Subscribers to the list receive by e-mail  all messages posted to the list. Only subscribers to the list can post messages to the list.

The mailing address for postings is - [email protected]

To subscribe send the word "subscribe" (without the quotes) as the only text in the message to - [email protected] (for mail mode)

or [email protected] (for digest mode)

You can unsubscribe just as easily so why not join in on the discussions!

If you need more detailed information about the list or help with any problems then read on. What follows is reprinted from the web site of Tricia Petitt, "owner" of the list, with her permission.

 



MCWHORTER-L

Mail-List

A Mail-List for the discussion of MCWHORTER (McWhirter - MacWhorter -McWurter - McWhurter - and all other variants) Genealogy and History is now available. This is not a monitored list, BUT, you are responsible for not going too far off-subject. Remember, if you send your message to [email protected], it will go to everyone on the list. If you stay on-subject then most of your responses should be of interest to the whole list. But, you can keep personal responses... Personal, by replying only to the sender.

Since there is sometimes confusion as to which e-mail address to send "SUBSCRIBE" & "UNSUBSCRIBE" information to and sometimes the copy of the List Welcome Letter gets lost, I will try to make it as easy as possible. You can even save a copy of this whole page to a folder on your hard disk and send messages through your browser.


If you are familiar with subscribing and unsubscribing to Mailing Lists, you may skip down to the bottom of this page.
