If a message is sent off list to you, it is unconsciousable and
childish to sent it back to the list.
and about *your* actions "on list", ie: failure/refusal to follow list
standards/ netiquette?
On most lists that would get a suspension of privledges.
and you would be known as an "aoler", but that probably pre-dates your
eight-year-old addr.
Thanks
I'll also keep that in mind. Never the less, returning private email
back to a list would normally bring a suspension. It is more than a
violation of netettiquite. It's a violation of basic human decency.
Maybe some partner search service has such policy, but on public mail lists is
more common to consider sending private email as violation of privacy and
most of them prevent list users from knowing other party email address. You
communicate only to the list server, and if you have complains you can
address list administrator or moderator, not the other party.
On this list is not forbidden to send unsolicited off list emails, but it is
the recipient right to decide how to reply, direct or to add CC:mail_list,
CC:list_administrator, or anyone else. This is just a common sense that
applies to any unsolicited email.
Should we call Rick Moen and ask his opinion?
As you can see we can handle it.
BTW, your signature block is annoyingly long.
One of the longest I have ever seen.
There was a time, years ago, I developed an extremely
large .sig... precisely for the purpose of annoying
a couple of venues which were composed almost completely
who deserved to be annoyed...continuously ;-)
And this was in the days of dialup! There's several
thousand (10,000 or so?) messages from me like that
on some USENET groups which were populated primarily
by some particularly vile people.
