Subject: [BARRINGER] spam coming to the lists
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2004 08:24:37 -0800 (PST)


Hi all. As you know, the message boards for these surnames on ancestry.com are
gatewayed to the lists. I want to keep them that way because it provides more
opportunity to connect with a cousin; however, the downside is that when "spam"
is posted to the message boards, they are automatically sent to the lists.
Lately, there has been a string of these to be posted. Only the Bradford and
Eller list has been affected so far, but for future reference, anything
gatewayed from the message boards to the list that refers to getting out of
print books from astrologos.com, just ignore it. Those messages are
automatically deleted from the message boards when they are posted, but still
come to the lists and there is nothing I can do about that unless I don't allow
gatewaying. I am a librarian, so if anyone needs help locating out of print
books for inter-library loan, please feel free to email me with as much info on
the books that you have as possible. Don't be afraid to look on ebay or with
amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com for out of print books as well as they have
used bookstores and other resources. Thanks.

Erin
