is correct.....PLEASE, when you have time, please, please check my "account" or

Hello
everyone,

I know change is a challenge for everyone. It is no easier
for me to change from the Yahoo group format to something different, but
change nonetheless is necessary for our survival.

having said that. .
.we are going to be making a serious push to transition over to the new site
in the next several weeks. So this is what I need from you.

1) go to
the website and using your Yahoo ID request a password be sent to you (NOTE:
do not start a new account).

2) after you get your password sent to you
go back in with your Yahoo ID and the new password and "LOG-IN."

3)
then request a new password if you want or keep the exisiting one, BUT
WHATEVER YOU DO WRITE DOWN YOUR PASSWORD and keep it SOMEPLACE WHERE YOU CAN
FIND IT (and yes I was kind of yelling, did you hear me???).

4) now
after you are logged in I want you to go to "mailing lists" and subscribe to
one or two or all three of them. WHen you do this a group generated
"confirmation" letter will be sent to you. (one for each list you chose, 3
max). You will have to "reply" to that "confirmation" email in order for you
to be subscribed to the email distribution list.

Let's go with that
for now, but

if you are really wanting to dig in for more you
can

5) go to "create content" and set up a folder for yourself under
"Member Genealogy
Files"
Have a look at Angie Godina's and My folder and try to use this
format just like we had in the Yahoo groups: for example

Angie Godina
(aajay1073@yahoo.com)

Joseph
Puentes (makas@nc.rr.com;
makas_nc)

I would like Peggy, Lourdes, and
LongsJourney to follow this format. . .basically I need this help

and
truthfully if it wouldn't be an inconvenience to you all I would prefer this
format:

Joseph Puentes (makas@nc.rr.com; makas_nc)

[[[that is
the person's name, followed by their email address, followed by their
ID]]]]]]]]]]

what do you think can we do that.

thanks all and
let me know if I can help you. I might be slow at doing this but I'll get to
you all in the order of help needed.


thanks,

joseph
