*EXAMPLES:

The listserver sends replies to the entire list.

  1. If someone posts a question and you provide an answer that will benefit others on the list, please 'Reply to All' to the listserver posting.
  2. If you are engaged in a personal discussion with someone, please hit 'Reply' which will send to the specific person with whom you are having the dialog.
  3. Trips are generated when there is interest in the outing so responding to the entire list that "you are going" may encourage the participation of others.
  4. Replying to the entire list to ask someone for his/her phone number is NOT appropriate. This results in 'junk mail' to the entire list.
  5. Please THINK before you hit REPLY.
