I use Gmail for my Legacy group mail. It permits me to develop labels for any number of interest groups or email senders. I can then sort my mail by these components, which makes it dead easy to look at all the Legacy mail in one chunk. And with over 6Gb of storage for mail on Gmail, I can be

I'm not sure what you mean, Ron. Are you saying that because it doesn't do it now I should just drop it from my wish list? I had hoped this new charting software from Legacy would accomplished what I had wanted to do, create a nice chart for my parents of their ancestors (2-3 gens) and their

Another thought would be to have an e-mail address (since you can have a couple with AOL) just for Legacy or just for genealogy. That way you can open that AOL account when you have the time to read it. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:
