[SOGo] Reminder - Mailing List Guidelines

2011-02-24 Thread Francis Lachapelle
Hi folks

Just a quick reminder about the recommended guidelines when posting a new 
message to the mailing list. I've seen a lot of thread hijacking in the past 
weeks so I think a little refresh is welcomed :

 * search for existing answers — consult the archives or the FAQ for previously 
answered questions
 * do not hijack threads — don't generate a post by replying to somebody else's 
message and changing the subject and text; newsreader software will see your 
post as a part of the same thread and mix the two subjects, to everyone's 
confusion
 * send plain text message (no HTML or Rich Text) to avoid getting rejected by 
our spam filters
 * avoid replying to a message on top of the quoted text of the previous 
correspondence
 * be nice — you are in effect asking a large group of people to give you some 
of their time and attention; ensure that your message is relevant to as many of 
the people receiving the message as possible


That being said, thanks for everyone's contribution! Long life to the wonderful 
SOGo community!


Cheers,

Francis
