Mailing lists are a forum for sending e-mails to all the
persons subscribed to the list, in this case fellow researchers
of the surname Spitty and its variant spellings.
They are a good way to introduce ones self to other Spitty researchers, ask for research help, give help, post
items of general interest to the list subscribers eg. new
Spitty data, web links etc.
Message Boards are similar in use to the mailing list
except it is in a message board format and not e-mail based as
is the Mailing List.
Please note that although the terminology 'subscribe' is
used the mailing lists and message boards are free, there are no
fees or charges to subscribe, receive and/or post messages.
