Thanks Sam. I have a strong suspicion that we’re going to get another swarm
tomorrow. There is some impressive bearding happening. If it happens, you’re
welcome to it. I’ll let you know.
Just to add to my earlier message (and I apologise if you’re aware of this
already). This list is different to a regular mass email where there is a
choice between “reply” (to reply just to the sender) and “reply all” (to reply
to everyone). With this list, if you hit “reply” it goes to everyone. So
replying to an individual requires sending a new email and copying their email
address into it, assuming they’re one of the people whose email address shows
up. So it’s not as simple as it sounds at first.

I am with Juli I enjoyed reading all the activities and goings on with other
beeks. I find it interesting and learning lots from all the Q&As. Still
waiting for a swam for my failed colony.

The problem is that for a lot of people I can’t see the individual email
address. I’m not sure why it shows them for some people but not for others.
Personally, I’ve been enjoying all the emails immensely and have learnt a
lot over the last few weeks.

I'm with Sharon. Most posts are informative and very interesting. Many are
personal replies that should be sent to the individual concerned, not the
whole group. Takes up a lot of time sifting through them, would be good to
cut down the volume.
As a lurker who has hopes of becoming a beek some day, I am very grateful
for the wisdom and advice given by experienced beekeepers. Your generous
advice is muchly appreciated.
Regards,
Alina

Hi Sharon,
I do understand were you are coming from, on some days the emails are quite
overwhelming. But I do enjoy reading many of the answers to particular
questions as I am often learning from the answer too, not just the person
who asked that particular question. I think it often would be a shame
missing out on the many ideas people have.
All the best

Hi everyone
I’ve counted the number of emails I have received today from
This group and it is far too many to deal with on a daily basis which will
mean I may have to unsubscribe. This is very disappointing because some
information (especially from Paul and Gareth) is very interesting and I also
like to see/be included on the swarm list. However, when people feel the
need to respond and ask questions , rather than reply to the Individual they
just “reply to all” so I am receiving several emails about things that do
not concern me and it is clogging up my inbox!
Please can I ask members to reply to individuals if you have a question or
are responding to someone’s plea for help to take others out of the
conversation.
Many thanks
Sharon
