I concur. One relevant posting, made once and not repeated, to relevant newsgroup(s), which then refers the readers to a Web page and/or e-mail address where more information can be obtained -- is not in my mind "spam" but a relevant piece of news.

Five or six complaints or follow-ups addressed to that one posting, IS spam, because now the traffic is carrying five or six times the bandwidth it did before.

And blatantly off-subject postings, like the ubiquitous "sex sex sex!" are always unwelcome.

But... let's keep an open mind with one another, try to remain focused on the subject in our own postings (however frequent or infrequent they may be), and occasionally look the other way at what offends us. Merely the rules of civility. Received on Wed Jun 04 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
