Re: Message to JFW mods

Hi Alice,

I am on quite a few lists and some of them have long names.  They use this 
method of identifying the list and I do spend quite a bit of time over time 
listening to that id too many times.

I am glad you do not find it annoying but I do.

Thanks for your comments.

Strange...this is the only list I am on that does not identify its messages as 
being from the list. I can't imagine the nano second that is lost for JAWS to 
read JAWS in the subject line could be that big of an annoyance. Particularly 
when someone new shows up on the JFW list and/or there is some weird subject 
line, I am sure I delete potentially interesting or useful messages because I'm 
not sure where they're coming from 
Another county heard from...

  We actually tried that for a time a couple years ago, and there was quite a 
bit of resistance to it. My advice to you would be to create a filter to put 
messages from the list into a different folder for you. How you'd do that 
depends on your mail client/service of choice and is a bit beyond the scope of 
the list.

  Hello James,
  First of all, thanks for the great job of moderating the list.
  I wonder if it's possible to add JFW or similar as a prefix to the subject 
line of messages to enable grouping etc.
  This would make email reading much easier for those of us who have lots of 
emails to get through each day.
  Compliments of the season to you all.
  Glen

    Folks,
     
    I appreciate that you're looking for people to fill your newest of many new 
mailing lists, but the JAWS list is hardly the place to be advertising for it. 
Let's try to restrict our posting to things that are actually considered 
on-topic for the list, please. This seems to be a biweekly reminder to folks on 
the list, and I don't really think it should need to be.
