RE: PLEASE!!! a bit of etiquette

[Guest guest]

This is the Chinese Medicinelist please stay on topic.

 

Use a line that explains the message or it won’t reach the people

 

you intend it to. Do not expect everyone to read every message.

 

 

 

If you answer or comment on a message use the reply function and keep the

 

same line.

 

 

 

If you are changing the subject or going off on a tangent change the subject

line.

 

 

Do not resend the entire previous message; just quote the stuff you're

commenting on

 

and put your contribution _under_ it.

 

 

 

If you answer more than one question, put a single answer under each question.

 

 

 

 

If something is interesting to only one person, or is a question only one person

can answer,

 

send it directly to that person's address rather than the list. If their

answer is of interest

 

to many, you can ask them to reply on the list.

 

 

 

Use plain text because downloading attachments costs

 

more (if you are using a Cafe Computer) and not everyone can read them.

 

 

 

Understand that this is email; Sometimes it is easy to misinterpret someone's

intentions

 

when you cannot see, hear, or smell them.

 

 

 

If you send the same message to many addresses at the same time, always put

private

 

addresses in the " BCC: " field so the addressees won't end up on unwanted lists.

I agree and have already posted a previous messages stating this.

Please lets take some time to edit the subject line and body text.

Otherwise, it takes ages to read it (i check my emails via my mobile

phone and my thumbs gets very tired scrolling through chunks of mail

which shouldn't be there), and people cannot easily search for

previous messages in the archives.
