With so many new list members over past months I thought I would send a note
out to all the lists as a little reminder.

The primary thing that will keep our list members happy is being careful
about what you send back to the list. To quote one of the sources below:

"...be very careful to edit the quoted sections down to the bare minimum of
text needed to maintain the context for your reply. There is very little on
a mailing list that is more annoying than paging through a few pages of
quoted text only to read a few lines at the end. Also be careful that you
clearly indicate what text you're quoting (as opposed to what you're
writing), and if possible, cite the author of the original text."

There are a couple great sources for information on Netiquette. One I prefer
is <http://www.gweep.bc.ca/~edmonds/usenet/ml-etiquette.html>. Apple also
has a great resource that covers some of the basics at
<http://lists.apple.com/lists.taf?function=display-short-help>.

As always, if you have any questions or problems send a message to
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

Thanks and happy listing!
