> What is a Discussion Mailing list
> ---------------------------------
>
> A discussion mailing list allows all subscribers to post messages that are
> in turn reflected or resent to all other subscribers. By subscribing to
the
> mailing list you are implicitly agreeing that you want to view receive
those
> messages.
>
> The netmeeting-discussion mailing list on most days will generate 15+
> messages -- some days many more -- if you are not prepared to deal with
that
> many messages you should not be subscribed to the list.
>
> Purpose of the list
> -------------------
>
> The purpose of this list is to provide peer-to-peer help and information
> about NetMeeting and related products including (but not limited to) buddy
> systems (like ICQ), ILS/ULS servers, video conferencing cameras, headsets,
> conferencing servers, IP to telephone gateways that work with NetMeeting.

> General Rules of the list
> -------------------------
>
> Subscribers should read and follow Mailing List Manners 101
> (http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=05386) an article by Adam C.
> Engst. The general rules of the list are outlined below - subscribers that
> repeatedly bend the rules will be removed.
>
> 1)Subscription to the list is subject to list owner approval.
> 2)Posts are not usually moderated but submitters repeatedly posting
> offensive, illegal or off topic messages will be removed from the list.
The
> list owner may from time to time moderate posting to the list and reject
> postings.
> 3)Binaries or other attachments should not be used.
> 4)Only subscribers may post to the list.
> 5)Subscribers whose mail is undeliverable for 6 hours or more may be
removed
> from the list. If this happens to you must re-subscribe to continue
> receiving postings and to post to the list.
> 6)Modest commercial posts are welcomed, provided they follow the subject
> guidelines.
> 7)Trim reply messages to the minimum for readability and to keep the
> bandwidth requirements for redistribution as small as possible.
> 8)Do not send posts to the list in "HTML" format -- it makes messages
large,
> straining bandwidth and resources and fouls the digest so that readers of
> that format have difficulty using the digest.
> 9)Do not use "auto responders" on accounts that subscribe to the list-
"auto
> responders" typically respond with "I am on vacation" type messages.
> 10)Do not use accounts which request confirmation of message read options.
