Vincent, I posted that because you asked a question and I answered it, which is also good mailing list etiquette.
Since you posted your question "Why do you write this?" to the mailing list instead of replying just to Chris, anyone on this list is free to reply to it. Again, this is basic mailing list etiquette. -- Prentice On 01/27/2012 11:15 AM, Vincent Diepeveen wrote: > And why do you post this? > > On Jan 27, 2012, at 5:06 PM, Prentice Bisbal wrote: > >> Vincent, >> >> He wrote that because he's trying to educate you on proper mailing >> list >> etiquette, which is something you appear to be lacking. >> >> Chris is absolutely right - you should not reply to off-list e-mails >> on-list. >> >> -- >> Prentice >> >> On 01/27/2012 01:06 AM, Vincent Diepeveen wrote: >>> Why do you write this? >>> >>> On Jan 27, 2012, at 12:27 AM, Christopher Samuel wrote: >>> >>> On 26/01/12 23:28, Vincent Diepeveen wrote: >>> >>>>>> Mike you replied to me not to mailing list. >>> That was probably deliberate, and it is inconsiderate to post a reply >>> publicly without checking with the writer that they are OK with that, >>> especially as you quoted what they wrote - they may not have wanted >>> that >>> in the public domain. >>> >> _______________________________________________ >> Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin >> Computing >> To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit >> http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf > _______________________________________________ > Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing > To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit > http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf > _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
