Don't you think you are taking your role here a little too seriously? After all, we are not talking trade secrets here or national security. I have been a member of scores of mailing-lists in the ten years I've had access to e-mail and I've never seen a list-mom have need of proving his identity. Nor have I ever experienced anyone posing as a false list-mom. Is that a common problem on the TB lists? > PGP signing is welcomed and not discouraged on this list since it > is a function of TB Of course, there's nothing wrong with the odd PGP signature now and then in the course of explaining or discussing TB's features. But just because TB has many features does not mean we all have to use every feature on every message to the list. The "flow" of a mailing list is very important - being able to easily and quickly follow a conversation thread. Interruptions in the form of unneccessary felicitations, dates, quotes, cookies and signatures just make the conversations less easy to follow and thus less useful for everyone involved. The TB lists are some of the "noisiest" I've experienced in this respect, which is rather ironic, since we are here to discuss an email client that basically is a tool to make communication easier, quicker and more pleasurable! -- Ian Petersen ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60c FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
