I'm not going to make a big speech, but I disagree with rules to rid a member of the list for posting OT. They may also post relevant useful stuff. But its your list so I wont argue. Just one point, too many people posted OT remarks not thinking that this is not a USA only membership. Allen
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Leafe Because this is a community list that grew out of the desire of the community to share both technical knowledge and other life experiences. The tech list was set up to satisfy those people who had content restrictions on their email set by their employer. The [OT] label has always been a voluntary thing which has worked remarkably well, with a few noticeable exceptions. To echo your point, I have never understood why people can't take responsibility for filtering their email, and instead expect someone else to do it for them. It really isn't hard to set up a rule in any modern email client that will redirect mail from particular addresses to the trash if those authors have demonstrated their unwillingness to act as part of this community. It's simple to do, and it makes the overall experience of being a part of this list so much more pleasant. No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
