Can people please just email the list and not the person *AND* the list!!!

i get duplicate emails and its very annoying to what is a great list so
far.  kinda puts me off from answering peoples questions!
    

Personally, I like em, the list is often slow, by a fact of a half hour at
times, that is too long to wait for a message to show up.  With the reply to
list and sender, you get the answer faster, and you also help the list keep
a good archive so others can be helped later.

I think it would be very simple to create a rule in your email application
to nuke the messages that you do not want.
  
I agree.
When someone has a MySQL problem, it is often urgent.
While most of my posts to the list seem to appear withing a few minutes, I can remember many occasions when they took more than a few hours.

What I have a problem with is people piggy-backing off other people's threads. If you have a new topic, start a new topic...
