Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Hi Angela, Do you mean 'how does this group thing/e-mail list thing work'? If you do, it's like this. You receive every e-mail any of us sends to the group into your inbox; if you want to reply to any of those e-mails you just hit reply; everyone else on the lists sees all the e-mails sent to the group too, and everyone also sees any replies you make . In this way you do get conversations going on but statements/questions etc and responses to them are separated by sending and receiving them as e-mails, it doesn't happen instantly as in chat. Hope that helps. New to the list too, folks, so tagging a 'hi to all' on to this.
