Hi all,
Perhaps some suggestions are in order? I've been drowning in email
for the past two days. Perhaps some suggested behavior may be helpful?
One, refrain from sending "I agree" messages. If you want to tell the
person you agree with that you do, send it privately.
Two, if the subject line of your message says "for Cindy" or "for Gwen"
or whatever name, that message should be sent privately. It's for that
individual. You've said so. Don't clog the list with personal
messages. Address your messages to all or send them privately.
Three, when a big hoodoo like just happened happens, read all or most
of the messages and then make one reply. That's one reply, please!
I've seen strings of messages in the last two days where one person
will send ten messages all with the same subj line and all one right
after the other. Please, folks, be a mite mindful about those of us
who do have legitimate jobs and work to do. We don't have time to read
through an hundred and fifty messages a day from one list on about two
subjects.
Oh, and how about the ten messages I just saw entitled list traffic or
list volume? Don't you realize that when you reply to this thread,
you're increasing the volume? Hello! Yeh, I know, I've just done it too.
I'm sorry, Pavi, but I had to speak up..
Ann P.
