John Berry apologized for replying to a political message crossposted to vortex-L and vortexB-L. He thought he was sending it to vortexB only.
Watch out for that. Never put vortex-L and vortexB-L in the same message address. Rule 5 bans "crossposting;" the including of vortex-L in any message to some other forum. People replying to messages with other addresses in the "TO:" or "CC:" may accidentally send a nasty vortexB reply to vortexB, *and* to vortex. (It's very much the same as sending secret emails to friend, without noticing that the CC line is broadcasting your email to a public forum. Never forget to check!) 5. Please do not include any other email list in the TO line or the CC line of your messages to vortex-L. In the past this has caused storms of "thread leakage" between lists and redundant messages as replies from subscribers go to both lists. It's OK to manually forward mail from other lists to vortex-L, as long as the TO line and CC line has only vortex-L and no other list.
