(PMOD) Note from List Admin

A few requests for everybody...

1) Don't include the word "help" in the subject or the first five lines or ao of
your posts. It will get caught by Majordomo and kept for manual processing.
Similarly don't say subscribe, unsubscribe, or anything that may be recognized
as a majordomo command. If it is unavoidable put an asterisk or similar in the
middle of the word (e.g. help == h*elp). Real requests meant for majordomo are
to go to "majordomo@livingston.com"..

2) When quoting messages, please snip the quoted message down as much as
possible, especially the "how to unsubscribe" thing appended to all outgoing
message posts, we don't need to read it again in the quoted portion from an
older message.

3) Don't CC: me, support, or other Lucent personal on posts going to the PM
lists unless specifically asked to. Either send it to one or the other. If you
are thinking of sending me an e-mail personally, please think twice, as it may
be better and more quickly answered on the list. If you send something to me
personally, I may not get to it for a while, since I have other things to do.
And if there isn't a whole lot of reason that I can see that it went to me
personally, it may get ignored depending on my time, or I may send my reply to
it directly to the list that it should have been posted to to begin with. This
is an *unofficial* user support channel--if you want an OFFICIAL response send
it to support@livingston.com or call support.

4) If you are having mail list related problems and want to talk to a human send
your request to owner-list-name@livingston.com. Yes, for now that is me. Use
the alias anyway, it may not always be me.

5) No FOR-SALE posts. Whether Livingston/Lucent equipment or not, doesn't
matter. There are several other lists just for doing that.

6) Make sure you post from the same address that you are subscribed from.
Otherwise your posts won't get through. They'll just seem to disappear until I
notice them and manually send you back a notice letting you know something is
wrong.

7) If you get subscribed to the "bounces" list, it means your mailbox is causing
lots of bounces to me (or the list owner) and you've been knocked off of the
list. Once your problem is fixed, you'll have to resubscribe to the list(s) you
were on before.

8) When posting ASCII only. NO HTML, NO MIME, NO ATTACHMENTS!

Thanks everybody.
