Would it make sense to automatically send out a 'list-etiquette' message
to each and everyone who subscribe to the list?

Preferably in a different msg than the the subscription confirmation.

Something like:

=======================
Welcome,

Please, do:
a) Use descriptive subject lines (or your msg might get ignored)
b) Trim your replies
c) Use a relatively short .sig file
d) Etc.

Please, don't:
a) Use HTML formatting (or your msg might get ignored)
b) Setup your vacation messages so they end up on the list
c) Etc.

=======================

It's not the answer to every possible 'problem' on the list, far from
that. But it could give a hint to new participants of how the majority
of the list community would prefer it to be.

Regards
Gustav
