Several of you have remerked that you are getting old messages back
that were bounced from the LS in the last couple of days. Just
wanted to say that I get them frequently, but the header indicates
that it bounced from a particular subscriber's ISP. When one of your
posts is bounced by someone's account, it is returned to _you_, not
the listserver. So, just because you get the bounced message doesn't
necessarily mean the your post didn't get to the listserver.
Agreed on appending a return address. AAMOF, doesn't courtesy ;)
demand that one signs all correspondence? It _really_ shouldn't be
that difficult to add your anme and e-mail address at the end of a
post.
Also, it was mentioned about people listing multiple addresses, and
how they kept them striaght. Well, sometimes it's not our fault -
I _now_ have _9_. 8 are courtesy of Honeywell, and are all dovetailed
together. So I recieve and send HI stuff from one account.
The margins that someone mentioned are more than likely from someone
forwarding thier post from one account to their posting account.
Last thing: Please, Please, please, please don't qwuote the _entire_
message in your reply! quote _only_ what you need to make the point.
Please!
