Tips for Sending Messages

When responding to a listserv, keep your messages brief.
Don't send large attachments to the mailing list. Bear in mind that whatever you send gets multiplied by 200 and sent out again. A 2MB file becomes a 400MB bottleneck.
Include a portion or a summary of the message you are responding to.
Don't use all upper cases when writing.
Identify yourself.
Do not "flame" others on the listserv.
Don't be critical of people's queries or comments.
