OK, could you maybe create a Lazarus mailing list etiquette page like
what was done for fpc-pascal as shown below. This could include
attachment size limit, preferred mail format, quote size etc. This
information could be very useful to new mailing list subscribers.

I choose not to respond in this thread.
It is not forbidden to write HTML mails, I agree is it not wise,
because less people can read it.

These are the rules for most mailing lists

  http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Yes, that one relates to fpc-pascal, but I would have expected the same
rules for the lazarus mailing list too. It's common rules/etiquette that
should be known by all.

Where is the list moderator/maintainer now?  HTML email is NOT allowed
in the mailing list as for as I know. This is a general rule for 99% of
all mailing lists out there. So I would like to see such message gone
too - irrespective if my email client can or cannot read such messages.

So same goes for quoting messages. It just peeves me when somebody
quotes 30-50+ lines, then only adds a one line reply!

Moderator, please do what you were assigned/volunteered to do!

  - Graeme -

Many thanks for this hint :-)

It was not easy, but I could find a mailnews_prefer_plaintext option, 
that was disbled by default. After changing this option I see the 
original message in plain text. All that after using this software for 
so many years... 


Please excuse my ignorance and inappropriate rant, everybody :-(

I am sorry for this, uhm, problem. I was using the Yahoo! web interface 
at the time to write my mail. Now that I am home, I adjusted my mail 
client to send only text to the Lazarus list, which I hope will solve 
any problems. I will make sure to send text only when I'm at work. 
Thanks to Hans-Peter for pointing this out.

No, my "filter" allows me to quickly skip over contributions from 
users, that do not understand the use of a mailing list or newsgroup, 
or use inappropriate eMail software. My experience from decades of 
mail and news usage (you remember MAUS net?) tells me that it's not 
worth bothering with certain kinds or styles of messages and 
contributors. A bit of according education will make life easier to 
*all* participators - see Netiquette.

Fair enough, but I guess it should probably be forbidden by mailman
(which, afaik, offers filtering). So it's up to the mailinglist owner.

(I wouldn't mind a text-only policy, but currently that isn't in place,
so if - for whatever reason - I can't read/open/comprehend a mail, I
just ignore it.)
