You shoulda seen this woman wandering up and down the aisles in the WalMart parking lot today with her basket full of prchases and a very bewildered expression on her face. Guess she forgot where she parked her car (or Heaven forbit - I suppose it might have been stolen). It really was kinda funny to see her face as she went back and forth from one row of cars to the next, and back again to a row she'd already done. Like ya know, "I'm sure I parked the car in Row C, but it doesn't seem to be there. Maybe it was last week I parked in Row C. Maybe it's in Row D today. No? Oh, well, perhaps I'll try Row B. Not here either. I better check Row C again..." I sat watching for a while but I finally had to leave. I don't know if she EVER found her car. In the end, I felt really sorry for her and I really wanted to help her, though I don't know how I could have, but OTOH, I didn't want to embarass her by letting her know I'd been watching her bewilderment either.

After all, the more people who join our "movement" the better. Don't you think? As long as they send all the stuff they are supposed to, what difference does it make if they're on the list or not. As a stamper, especially on a list this size, I'm not even likely to realize that someone in the swap isn't on the list, so again, what difference does it make. As I've been in many swaps where there were stampers included who were not on the particular list involved and they worked through one of the list stampers as Barb has proposed to do. We always had their participation and obligations fulfilled. It seems to me that if they have enough interest to want to join a list swap, they surely would be worth having in the swap. As a matter of fact, I have taken my XANTH swap to both AOL and GEnie as well as a private list, and offered them the opportunity to join too. It never occurred to me that someone might object to this and I didn't think to ask permission. And indeed, as the hostess, I believe I don't NEED to ask anyone's permission. As a fellow swapper though, I would do as Barb did and ask if it would be ok to bring outsiders in, but I would ask the hostess of the specific swap they are interested in.

Sue , Those messages are in the JUNO directory on YOUR PC. Not on Juno's server anymore. The limit for your INBOX is probably related to the size of your Hard Drive's unused space or the size file your program (even Juno's inbox) can handle. For example. If I want to look at my inbox using a WINDOWS editing program like Notebook or Write, when there are lots of messages in there, the file is too big, then Notebook won't/can't open the file, while Write can and Juno, obviously can. But the original question was how many messages before the JUNO MAILbox (not your personal inbox) gets full, and this question refers to the JUNO server mailbox (where they sit between the time other people send them to you and the time you download them), and how many can wait there for distribtion. So far, we haven't discovered a limit. Not to say that there isn't one, just that so far, no one that we know has reached it. StamPatti, vsa & vsr Computers are life. Rubberstamping is art.
