Subject: [D16ve-l] This Mailing List Will Be Eliminated April 10th
Message-ID: <007001cacba4$a3d857e0$eb8907a0$@net>

Back in October I sent you all a message indicating that this list would be
going away in the near future. Well, the near future is now here. As of this
time about half of you have done that leaving the other half to migrate. I
am allowing another couple weeks for the rest of you to get yourselves
logged into SailAngle and to find your way to the D16 ve-1 & Safety Group. I
have included below a fairly detailed description of how to go about doing
that.

 

The system already includes a connection to a database of all USPS members.
The security is so good on this system that when folks no longer are members
they will be removed from our Group and the system automatically. Only our
group members have access to the D16ve-1 and Safety domain in SailAngle. To
be sure it is considerably more capable and may at first seem more
complicated than our old system, but once you log in a few times you will
find it much less intimidating.

 

Now, for those who have not yet tried or those who have had trouble signing
on to SailAngle, first go the USPS home page at http://www.usps.org/ and
look for the  button. Click on this button and it will take you to SailAngle
login page like the one in the graphic below.  You should use your USPS
membership (certificate) number as your Email/Username and your mailing 5
digit zip code as your password. In the example below clipped from the
SailAngle login page the Username E123456 and a zip code was used for the
password. As is normally the case you are not able to see the password. I
encourage all of you to take a shot at logging on and exploring a bit.

Once you are logged on, hover your mouse over the Groups button as displayed
in the image above. It will drop down a lower level menu from which you want
to click on USPS Groups. On the right hand menu on this page click on
D16ve-1 & Safety. This takes you to our Group. If you don't see the page
with the first few members you were not in the original database that was
migrated over so you will need to click on the "Join" button on the top left
of the page.  This will then send a request to me to join the group and I
will execute that as soon as I see it. If anyone can't remember their
membership number (now what VE doesn't know their certificate number?) just
call or drop me an email and I'll send it to you. Please feel free to
contact me with any problems you encounter. Thanks for your cooperation.
Hang in there and keep on doing those VSCs.

 

See you on SailAngle

 

Bob
