34 | <PRE> Two things. First, can we please modify subject lines when the | |
35 | thread content changes? That'll make it easier for people who aren't | |
36 | interested in reading the messages to skip past them. Second: | |
37 | ||
38 | ><i>If I may interupt you, this is still a list regarding IRC Services, not a | |
39 | </I>><i>classroom environment focused on proper RFC procedures. I would greatly | |
40 | </I>><i>apreciate you sticking to that topic, as I along with several other members | |
41 | </I>><i>of this list have many other emails to filter through, and have little time | |
42 | </I>><i>to read off topic posts. You are more than welcome to argue this point in | |
43 | </I>><i>private with whom ever else is interested since you obviously know where to | |
44 | </I>><i>find the "from field" on an email. | |
45 | </I> | |
46 | Actually, this _is_ relevant IMO; while I agree it's getting out of | |
47 | hand, the original complaint is a valid one and should be addressed one | |
48 | way or another. And please don't flame back; it only makes things worse. | |
49 | ||
50 | It's really a simple matter--when you reply to the list, check your | |
51 | To and CC lines and make sure there's only one copy of the list address in | |
52 | there. (Actually, checking your To and CC lines is a good idea in any | |
53 | case; I do it as a matter of habit.) Yes, there are ways to solve this on | |
54 | the server's side too, but just because someone else _could_ do something | |
55 | to solve the problem doesn't mean you shouldn't do what you can. | |
