ARGH My not-going anywhere post got cut off. I keep forgetting that i'm on a windoze box, and c-e doesn't mean go to the end of the line. In fact, in Eudora it means send immediately.
ah well... my only point was: If you accept that mailing lists like bits are a community then i think that what is considered do/not do behavior can be considered a custom. So, if you are in a mailing list with mostly net-savvy people, you will appear rude if you break the customs. whether you care or not is up to you. -Lkb
