Re: [MOSAIC] posting request
As already mentioned by Karen and Ginger, the MOSAIC list has seen a rash of recent posts where the actual message is only a small part of the total email content. I'd like to illustrate the problem and then follow with some list etiquette rules. Recent MOSAIC replies with NEW WORDS in the message compared to TOTAL word count of message: New Words Total Words Percentage New 1 729 0.1% 54 334 7.2% 69 560 12.3% 103 501 20.6% 55* 68* 80.9%* (Optimum) 135*135* 100%* (Perfect!) If the above table didn't get mashed in the send process, you will see that the first four rows show a HUGE disparity between the new content in a reply and the total amount of words. In addition to creating annoying problems for people reading our digest, this can also cause multiple digests to be sent out each day. Here are two important tips to remember when replying in your MOSAIC community (copy and post it on your monitor or fridge?): PROFESSIONAL ETIQUETTE FOR REPLYING TO LISTSERV MESSAGES 1. DELETE OR EDIT PREVIOUS CONTENT When replying DELETE all of previous post OR EDIT previous post to a bare minimum of words that relate to your reply. This is shown by the last two rows in the table above (*). 2. CONTACT THE PERSON NOT THE ENTIRE LIST Send thank-you's, and personal questions/requests to the INDIVIDUAL. In the MOSAIC list, "REPLY TO ALL" does NOT include the original poster's email. You must get the individual's email from the message header and replace the listserv email address with the individual's address BEFORE hitting the send button. Please remember to always be vigilant on your replies to the MOSAIC community and try to keep a high percentage of new content compared to total words in your replies. It only takes a few seconds.

[MOSAIC] posting request
When a member writes to the Mosaic list in response to a prior posting and uses the REPLY option, the entire prior posting gets resent through the listserv again (underneath the new text). While I realize it is helpful for us to see what you are responding to (or commenting on), it creates problems for our DIGEST members. Could I ask you to consider this option? When you are wanting to write in to the Mosaic list, do a simple cut and paste of the part(s) you are responding to or commenting on. To do this 1. START A BRAND NEW EMAIL to mosaic@literacyworkshop.org 2. HIGHLIGHT the part you want to comment on from the original email 3. Right click COPY 4. Go to your NEW email to the listserv and right click PASTE which will put that part into your new email. 5. THEN write your comments. This saves the server space rather than resending all the connected pieces that build up when someone hits REPLY. It's like a chain is created and all those previous messages are then resent- taking up space- and the digest people (who get large batches of our individual emails) then don't have to weed through what is old (resent) and what is new. We would appreciate it.
