[bcab] BCAB Email List Guidelines

Folks

In view of Derek's recent email, I thought it pertinent to resend the
list guidelines.  Remember these are meant to help keep the list a valid
and helpful resource for all.

1. Before sending a message, think about whether most people will find
it interesting. If it's mainly aimed at one person, then it should be a
private message.

2. Be civil, do not be offensive.

3. remember who the list is for, is the topic something which is likely
to be specifically of interest to members of the list?

4. Keep your email on topic, if the subject of your email changes,
change the subject line.

5. Advertisements of products and services cannot be placed on this list
without the permission of the moderator. Short emails pointing to
adverts and new information are welcome.

6. No top quoting. Many access the list from work or in circumstances
where we need to read messages as easily and quickly as possible. Top
quoting and other erroneous characters make this hard to do and in a lot
of cases, stop people from reading what you have to say.

7. No Humour. While we all enjoy a good laugh, as previously stated,
people need to access the list information as quickly as possible and
There are other lists which are dedicated to humour.
