Good morning gang. I sure do feel privileged to be in on these excellent 
discussions you all have.

Anyway, a few things to pay attention to. If you have any questions, please 
contact me off list.

1. You must use the address that you find in the From: or Reply-To: headers for 
your message to be accepted by the list. 

In each incoming message there are three headers that have an address that is 
similar to the list address. They are Return-Path:, Sender:, and Errors-To: and 
they all append "-bounces" to the address. It is for internal use only, and if 
you send a message to that address, it will not make it to the list.

2. You must send mail FROM the address that is subscribed to the list. So, if 
you have more than one address, be sure to use the one that is subscribed as 
your From address.

3. Try to trim back the quoting on your messages to decrease message size and 
increase convenience. Just try to quote the most recent parts and/or the parts 
that you are responding to.

4. When we moved the list from Topica last summer, I enabled the ability to 
have html and file attachments as an experiment. It seems to be OK, and some of 
you like it so I probably will not change back. But please only include file 
attachments if you think a lot of Wrenches will appreciate the file being 
handed to them. If you think only a few might like the file, it is better to 
give list members a choice by putting the file somewhere on the internet and 
merely sending the URL and description to the list. Yes, even in this day and 
age of high bandwidth, we actually have some members that are still on 
painfully slow dialup and semi-slow satellite.

Some of the messages with layers of quoting can be come quite colorful, can't 
they?  I hope this drab B&W message has not been too boring.

Peace.
