[HP4GU-FAQ] Lupin/Dumbledore/HELP

Sat Aug 12 01:54:50 UTC 2000

Thanks Penny and Melanie for your help,

Turned out that I am a member of another egroup for a horse rescue group I'm
involved with. When I tried to register, it said I was already registered.
So maybe I did it when the other group was set up and used an old, forgotten
password. The other group only uses the group email feature so I never have
to go online to egroups for that group. 

Now that I can get into the site, I do have a question about how to classify
messages. If we have a message for instance about the possibility of a
romance between Bill and Fleur, do I just add it to the romance line or do I
also make a note of it in the Weasley line, etc. 

Thanks, 
Margaret

Margaret --

I'm going to try & help (but my technical competence level is low)!

If you've never used egroups before, then yes, you do need to register.
Go to egroups.com.  Mine "remembers" me so I don't have to sign in each
time.  But, I suspect you do need to register if you've never done so
before.

If you have registered before but it's not accepting your password, is
it possible you've forgotten your password?

Anyway, once egroups lets you in -- this group should be one of the ones
listed on the left-hand side of the screen.  You're sending & receiving
email from this group, so you must be subscribed.

Aacck.  Not sure if I'm helping or not -- maybe someone else will have
suggestions to offer.
