Subject: A Suggestion for List Users

I'd like to suggest that folks include their email addresses in their
postings to the list.  That way, if someone needs to contact you
privately, they can easily do so without broadcasting over the entire
list.

Remember, to, that all messages to the list get archived; later
subscribers would probably appreciate it if we didn't fill the archives
with "see you next Wednesday" sort of messages.  If you include your
email address with each posting, any private responder can just cut and
paste your name into the To: block.

Also note that many mail programs support signature files...these
automatically get appended to your messages so that you don't have to
retype your name, email address, etc.

Along a similar topic, I'd also like to encourage folks to use a
descriptive title in their postings.  Again, that'll help newbies find
certain subjects in the archives.
