RomEx Information

What Is RomEx?

RomEx, The Romance & Women's Fiction Exchange is a community of romance writers and readers who share their expertise, skills and insights with each other. RomEx offers the romance community a place to chat, learn, promote, discover, and share about our interest in the romance genre.

Where Is RomEx?

RomEx is located simultaneously on the Genie Online Service and on Dueling Modems Internet server.

Why A Mailing List, Too?

This list was started as a backup in case anything ever happens to RomExers access to RomEx-Genie. It is NOT intended to replace RomEx-Genie or any other RomEx area.

But email is easily accessible by nearly everyone, so it's a great way to keep in touch with our RomEx friends until everyone is online on either RomEx-Genie or RomEx-DM.

Subscribing Basics

LIST VERSION:	DIGEST VERSION:
To subscribe to the list version, send email to: romex-request@mailinglist.net with the message subscribe	To subscribe to the digest version, send email to: romex-digest-request@mailinglist.net with the message subscribe
To unsubscribe, send email to either address with the message unsubscribe

Whether you're on the list or the digest, mail to the list needs to be addressed to:

romex@mailinglist.net

This address will send your mail to those on the list and the digest both.

The two lists are identical, but it is possible for you to be subscribed to both at the same time! If you switch from one to the other, please be sure to unsubscribe from the old one as well.

List Operation

RomEx is designed to keep RomExers and others apprised of activities in all RomEx areas, as well as events of interest to RomExers.

RomEx-Digest is the digestified version of the RomEx list. There is no difference between the lists. The digest is just a way of making it easier for some subscribers to receive mail if traffic begins to get overwhelming. With the digest version, you will receive one post a day (unless traffic becomes extreme, in which case you may get more than one), usually in the evenings. This post will contain all of the day's messages.

There are just few rules which make it easier on the list members.

Please do NOT send attachments to the list! Not everyone is able to process these, and such mails will clutter up the list.
Please sign your posts with your name and email address so that if someone wishes to write you directly they can. Some email programs strip the headers, including the return address from each email message.
Please make sure and use an accurate subject on each message. Some people are careful which posts they read and get a bit testy if they're reading inaccurate posts.
Please try and avoid the one-liners and me-too posts.
Quoting should be kept to a minimum, utilizing only what you need from the post to make your reply clear.
