Hi John,
Please have a look at many of the newbie posts, then hardly know how to
operate their PCs and definitely do not know what "mailing lists" are about.
Many of them are even surprised that the "product" could possibly even be
free so the concept of "moderation" is even more alien to them.
I CC: moderated emails and forward useful replies to users as I think that it
helps them while at the same time reminding people here to be aware of the
fact that many users need more than "just" the reply button.
If you are offend by my actions, then please add my email address to your kill
file. If however you want your answers to be seen by the original emailer
then please "CC:" them if they are moderated.
FYI: There are still over 100 emails to this mailing list from moderated users
who never received replies since December 1st. I hope to get to most of those
by the end of this month, if someone else has not already..
