When posting to the IMail Forum mail list, please comply with the following
"rules:"

1. Please search the IMail Support Center, the Archives and FAQ.

2. Understand what it is you want to ask.

3. If you want a good answer, provide good details.

4. Please use a subject line that will attract attention to your problem and
offers an insight of what asking about. (Example, a subject line of "Help"
will be ignored.)

5. Turn off Return Receipt Requests in your mail client.

6. Do not add attachments unless specifically asked to do so.

7. Only add .zip or .txt attachments. Others waste bandwidth and are larger.
If posting a log file only post the section relevant to the question.

8. Do not post in html format. This size of a message in HTML is a lot
larger than that of plain text. This is a problem for those on dial-up and
those with PDAs. It also makes it difficult for digest users.

9. Delete unnecessary text when quoting a post. It is wasting bandwidth.

10. Do not use a "DIGITAL SECURITY Signature". It wastes bandwidth and
causes problems for some users, such as those with PDAs.

11. If you change the topic or direction thereof, change the subject line.

12. Please allow time for people to respond to your post. We are working
too. Plus, some lists are known to be slow to post.

13. Please do not include lines of company/private legal disclaimer. You are
sending to a list. It is going to be resent to everyone on that list. It is
no longer a private or confidential message. The lists are archived and have
been known to show up on Google searches.

14. Do not include any line as part of a message "signature" like, "If you
have received this communication in error..."

15. If your post is criticized, please reread your original post you sent
along with the reply and take a few minutes to think about them before
snapping out a reply.

16. Do not initiate a flame against others. It is improper to do so on a
list. Take it off list.
