I do think that it is polite and wise to have all of your contact
information on an e-mail. I for one get plenty of e-mails where a simple
phone call would clear the issue whereas an e-mail conversation can be
confusing.
Given how easy it is within Outlook and Notes to apply a signature, I think
one should. Of course, not everyone can, but those that can really ought to.
It's the nice thing to do.
I did not second the proposal for security reasons.

David is right. Anyone who's capable of _using_ the I/A info here
for nefarious
purposes is certainly capable of bluffing their way onto the list.
As David
said, are you going to call those contact phone numbers each time
you post to
the list, even the ones on the other side of the planet? Didn't
think so.

Hi Duc,
I did the write up on the various methods of e-mailing. I would be
willing
to write it up more formally for the FAQ. I'll have it to you by
Friday.
As far as contact information goes:
This is kind of silly. It is ridiculously easy to make an alternate
e-mail
address and subscribe to the list server. Are we really going to
start
making phone calls before we answer questions on the list? Most of
the
information provided here is freely available to anyone willing to
read the
Foxboro manual set (although the list is often helpful with the
interpretation, tricks, etc). If this is a real security concern
then we
should start sending PGP authenticated signatures with the messages,
and do
we really want that?
I am also sending Mark Holts latitude and longitude to our spy
satellites
to see if he is really there.
Regards,
David Johnson
