The list moderator will expect you to comply with any or all of these requests. * Quote only the relevant portion of the message you are replying to. Not the complete message. * Try to hold down the 'one-liners' and reply directly to the sender if the topic isn't of general interest. Examples are "Me to", "I agree", "send me a copy" type messages. * Do not send virus warnings, multi-level marketing schemes, chain letters, articles about proposed internet taxes or laws, or anything that was sent to you with the request to "send this to everyone you know". These are off topic and generally only start flame wars. * Please mail personal comments to the person directly if you feel the need. * If it doesn't have to do with firearms and related issues at all it doesn't belong on the list. * Post a URL to long articles and a short summary. * Don't include attachments, or send HTML or MIME; the firearm forum list is ASCII only (plain text); any such attachments will not be sent out. Please check your mailer send properties and make sure HTML is not checked and send plain text is. * Advertising in list messages is not allowed.
