[governance] List Posting Rules: Unsolicited CCing is SPAM [was Stop CCing me]

Thu Aug 20 02:48:25 EDT 2009

Jeffrey and Eric

Apologies to others, but this is pertinent as we are now engaged in the
exercise of redefining list participation rules.

1. I am a subscriber to the list, therefore there is no need to CC me or any
other subscriber.
2. Email that is sent unsolicited is the primary criterion of what
constitutes spam. Sending spam is against the current rules (and the
proposed new rules). You are therefore in breach of the rules. The recipient
informing the sender that the mail is unwelcome merely constitutes an
aggraving factor.
3. Any one is free to further disseminate list debates/ discussions to
external interested parties by means of CC/ BCC/ FWD whenever one has reason
to believe that the recipient(s) will welcome receiving such posting(s).
4. Depending on applicability, anyone resorting to CCing when that person's
posting rights have been suspended is guilty of contravening the suspension.

In view of the above, I am asking you one last time - STOP CCing me.

I trust that the above is in order.
