Re: [LegacyUG] Sibling relationships
I do agree that people should turn it off. However there are quite a few who are unaware that they have it turned on, some have no idea what this is all about. Remember there are people who do not have all that knowledge about computers, they just want to do some genealogy, and send some mails, and have it all set up for them by others. To ask someone kindly to turn it off in a nice way is fine, and why not send it directly to the person in question? I really don't need to read all those mails regarding it. I have it turned off so of course I don't get those requests. Someone needs to see I have received their email, will pretty fast get an answer from me. Sometimes however those requests are not made in a very nice way. No wonder there are wars going on, if we can manage to get this upset about such a small thing. Someone asks for a receipt, send them a polite privately mail and explain. May be for ease and kindness we should have a how to ready for the different email programs to send them.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sibling relationships
Except that some of us correspond with other people (not this list) such as employers, or co-workers working on a project, where we WANT to respond positively to certain read receipt requests. Turning it off globally at our end means we do not recieve them at all. The sender on the other hand, has the ability to make requests on a per-email basis. Gary - Original Message - From: "John S.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sibling relationships
And perhaps the person raising the issue becomes the villian because they do not follow etiquette by raising the issue privately with the person "breaking the rules", but rather make a big issue by raising it via the list.

[LegacyUG] Sibling relationships
Hello again! Is anyone else having trouble with sibling relationships. I have three siblings in my file who were born to the same mother. The mother gave birth to a son and daughter to her first husband; and a son to her second husband. The Relationships Report incorrectly classifies the two sons as "step-brothers" when they are Half-brothers. However, the daughter and the #2 son are correctly classified "half brother" and "half sister."
