Hi Diana:

Agreed, though with respect to just UK-related mailing lists the
following entry in the Devon FAQ (Frequently asked Questions) file is
directly relevant, and points to a smaller and somewhat easier to use
listing:

>7. Is there a Mailing List for <?????>?
>
>There is a page listing all the counties which you can use to find
>out the relevant mailing list(s) for any given county. This page is
>at: http://www.genuki.org.uk/indexes/MailingLists.html
>(Alternatively this can be reached from the link "e-mail lists"
>under "Genealogy" in the UK & Ireland page.)

cheers
