[lace] R: Lace magazine / official email addresses

2017-05-01 Thread Nancy Neff
It's also perhaps worth noting that what Jeri has cited simply as "(ISP)"
is "gmail.com" in the case of the NELG addresses.  Are the 'free' (i.e.,
ad-supported) email services US-only or would they be available in the UK?
Because not only are the addresses "anonymous" in the sense that they don't
change even as the people behind them do, NELG doesn't pay anything for
those addresses or for the email service.

... Eight official officers of the New England Lace Group (approximately
100  members) all have addresses formatted like the 2  that follow:
_NELGPresident@(ISP_ (mailto:NELGPresident@(ISP) )  _NELGLibrarian@(ISP_
(mailto:NELGLibrarian@(ISP) )These  e-mail addresses never change.
They are reassigned after  elections or upon being appointed to a
position.  Any of 8 officers may write to one (or all) members, and we
know  precisely in what capacity they are communicating.

My apologies for the second email, unfortunately my original wasn't very
clear.

Can overseas members of The Lace Guild (the UK one) please let me know when
they receive their copy of Lace magazine.

Kind regards,

Clare in Portsmouth (UK)

Vice Chair, The Lace Guild.

Dear Jane Partridge,
 
Thank you for this explanation.  Nice to know, as The Lace Guild was  not 
mentioned in the original correspondence, only the word Guild.  There  are 
other "Lace" publications that members of Guilds  worldwide receive.  Gmail is 
used by people in many nations; not  exclusive to one country.  Some on 
Arachne will agree (if you are  careful as to with whom you are exchanging 
personal information)  that it is best if an official position is given below a 
 
signature.  In fact, the original old "guidelines" for new Arachne  members 
asked for a signature and general location.  
 
As a matter of information, and not to tell anyone what to do:  Eight  
official officers of the New England Lace Group (approximately 100  members) 
all 
have addresses formatted like the 2  that follow:  
_NELGPresident@(ISP_ (mailto:NELGPresident@(ISP) )  _NELGLibrarian@(ISP_ 
(mailto:NELGLibrarian@(ISP) )These  e-mail addresses never change.  They 
are reassigned after  elections or upon being appointed to a position.  Any  
of 8 officers may write to one (or all) members, and we know  precisely in 
what capacity they are communicating.

Hi Jane,

"I'm sure it would be lovely for the Guild to be able to afford time, money
and expertise to set up official accounts for those working outside The
Hollies"

I hope not, that would just be another address and password I'd have to
remember. This Luddite is happy with the way things are ;-)

Hello Jeri,

I am a member of the Executive Committee of the Lace Guild. If anybody
wants to contact the Exec Committee then holl...@laceguild.org is the best
way to do it as your question might be best answered by one of our paid
staff, somebody on the Museum's Committee or a member of Exec.

I hope that when I have been promoting the Guild it has been helpful to the
person I replied to (for example when somebody was looking for second hand
books).

The reason I asked people to let me know when they got their copy of Lace
was because I didn't think Arachneans wanted to get loads of messages from
people says 'Yes mine arrived on ' and it is easier to just hit [Reply]
to my post than remember to send an email to holl...@laceguild.org.

My email address is the one I use most and therefore the one I look at most
often, I am not in the process of collecting addresses, I have enough
clutter in my life already ;-)

Clare

Jeri,


Clare is a member of the current Executive Committee of The Lace Guild. She is
also a member of Arachne in her personal capacity - so her return address will
be a personal one (I don't think I have ever seen a committee member of any of
the organisations join Arachne in an official capacity,  since it started in
1995, but I may be wrong).


I'm sure it would be lovely for the Guild to be able to afford time, money and
expertise to set up official accounts for those working outside The Hollies,
but the practicalities of ensuring there will always be someone with the
knowledge to promptly change the forwarding addresses when the committee
changes or someone resigns, or affording a professional to do that for them,
make it one of those things that have been discussed and left at that (as you
will be aware, I'm a former Hon Sec of The Lace Guild). Other matters take
priority where charity finances are concerned.


BTW, your email, amazingly, has come through direct on the reflected list - it
seems some do, some don't - mostly I have to wait for the digest to see what
you have written, Jeri!

I agree it's spam. Best not to even open the email, much less clicking on
the link. Some viruses activate when an email message is opened, and don't
require clicking on a hyperlink.
