Sometimes when someone posts frequently to a group, it's called "spammy" or "spamming" even though it's not commercial spam and people don't get as angry as they do about "real" spam. It's just that you're excited and chatty. > May I include a photograph once a day? I wish all of you would. I got > mine down to 4k. I thought I was being creative. Creative, yes. However. Personally, I would prefer no photo in the email. Remember: we're all capable of watching your feed and seeing what you look like. See, even at 4KB, that's still four times larger than the average size of an email. So every message you send with the picture takes up four times as much space in everyone's email accounts as it would without the picture. Plus, the pics show up as attachments if you don't have HTML-enabled email, so people get prompted to download the attachment or don't know if it's a good attachment or an evil virus-spreading one, etc. etc. etc. Netiquette-wise, I suggest sticking to text. My personal pet peeve is that I wish everyone would compose their email messages in plain text instead of using any formatting, because frequently the formatting changes the font size so I can't even read it! But that's just me, and I try to work around it as much as possible, knowing that many people either don't know they can change those settings, or don't wish to for their own reasons. --Stephanie -- Stephanie Bryant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Vlog: http://mortaine.blogspot.com Audioblog: http://bookramble.blogspot.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
