Questions to ask oneself before posting a message to a mailing list:
1.Is the message being sent TO the appropriate destination (the whole list
vs. one or more selected individual(s))?
2.Is the subject line descriptive of my message?
3.Have I included only enough of any past message that my message refers
to so that other list members know what I am referring to?
4.Is my message as brief as possible, and have I referred interested
parties to a web site or other method of getting additional information (or
offered to send more information via e-mail for those who want it)?
5.Have I attempted to express appreciation to list members who have made a
useful contribution to the list?
6.If I have disagreed with someone else's ideas, have I attempted to avoid
a personal attack against them?
7.Have I attempted to ignore or defuse anything which I consider a
personal attack against me?
8.Does my message say something more than "me too" - does it say *why* I
agree, give another example of the point being made, or in some way add to
the message?
9.Have I offered to summarize the replies to any question I asked?
10.Have I signed the message, and included my e-mail address in the body?
11.Did I proofread the message?
