RE: ADMIN: *** ALL LIST MEMBERS MUST READ THIS ***

I want to ask you a quick question. I am still receiving the messages from the Oracle list.
But I cannot send any messages. :(
Can you please tell me what do I do to fix this? I thought I had registered to the new list
already.

Hi folks...

Aside from the nasty virus problems of yesterday, there were a couple issues that came up again, so please bear with me for a moment. These are important points.

1. Any time you see a Subject: line with "ADMIN:" in it, please read that message. It is NOT optional. The agreement that I (as list administrator) have with you (as list member) is that if you see those, you'll ALWAYS read them. In return, I will only use that prefix sparingly and for important subjects. A number of people are ignoring these messages, and that is not acceptable. You MUST read them, every time you seem them.
2. Do NOT send attachments to the list. I thought that most everyone caught this, but apparently not. It is not an appropriate use of mailing lists to send attached files to a list. ListGuru filters them out for the most part, but that doesn't stop the endless "I can't read that attachment -- could you resend it?" types of replies. They're annoying for everyone else, and useless as it won't ever succeed. If want to send an attachment, either send it directly to the interested party, or post a message saying you'll send (via private mail) it to whoever requests it.
3. All mailing list commands go to the address: ListGuru_at_fatcity.com, NOT the actual mailing list. If you send to the mailing list, your command won't be processed. ALL commands must go to that address, not the list. This includes requests for help, set commands to change to DIGEST mode, commands to leave the list, etc.

As always, if you have any problems or questions, please feel free to contact me at any time.

Thanks everyone, and keep your fingers crossed for no more viruses! ;-)
