Okay, this is a bit off-topic, but as it involves core mail-list netiquette, I've found it necessary to post something, so here goes:
There is absolutely NO reason to issue a receipt request when you send an email to mail lists, as it serves no function whatsoever except to annoy certain people (namely, me) who are trying to scan through the gazillion emails they get a day very quickly without little windows popping up. If someone understands your plight and wishes to respond, they will. If they don't, they won't, and even if they do issue a "receipt response", it just means they saw your email and didn't have an answer for you, so you gain nothing. More to the point, I will definitely NOT respond to any email that has a receipt request, nor will some like-minded others I'm sure, so you're just shooting yourself in the foot if you issue one. Your choice, as always, and happy emailing to ya... regards, Joe Barefoot P.S. I realize that for those of us using other email clients (I use Outlook mostly), this is not an issue, so kindly ignore my barbed comments. :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
