Subject: Your Posts Aren't Making it to the List?




Despite private e-mail and the regular inclusion
of the 'Posting Instructions' on this List,
some mail to this address still does not meet
the simple formating requirements and doesn't
get posted.

"Errol is being a controlling jerk" is not the
answer. The reasons for the specific formating
are laid out in the 'Posting Instructions' -
'if you don't read the manual the damn-thing
won't work for you'!

If, in a fit of 'housekeeping' you've 'filed'
that 'Manual' - it's available, Archived, at
the URL below.

On occasion, I'll clean up in-coming messages.
On occasion. Recently, there have been quite a
number of offending messages and to be frank,
I simply don't have the time to return them
or tidy them up.

So, if your messages are not making it to the
List you have 'transgressed an written-law',
committed a 'Newbie wants to see their name
on the List', sent a personal-attack/flame,
or just got me in the midst of a 'carmudgeon
episode'. <VBG>

If you're feeling unduly persecuted:

a) talk to your therapist - again

b) blame 'them'

c) consider the EMP effect

d) call up the message that didn't
   make it and compare its formating
   to the messages from UpDates that
   you've kept, or

e) send me an E-mail enquiring
   about the health of your mail/server.

Remember, if AOL subscribers can make _their_
mail-readers conform then formatting ain't no
Rocket Science.
