IMHO (and that's all we each have here) [OT] is just that, Off Topic. To me it means that the following e-mail isn't about Tango but might be of some other interest to me.
So, if I am easily offended by things Off Topic in the Witango list, I will set my mail server to delete everything that starts with [OT]. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. If you spend a good deal of your life seeking out things that offend you, when it is easy to avoid them, I'd suggest some self-introspection. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Steve Smith > Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 5:37 PM > To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk > Subject: RE: Witango-Talk: [OT] Hope this moves you as it did me > > > I have always interpreted the [OT] as a way of identifying messages that > were not directly Witango/Tango related but related to web development, > hosting, databases, etc. In other words, messages that might be > of interest > to the majority of the readers.
