I suspect you are not alone Sylvia.  I think we are due for an upgrade in Netiquette.  Somethings like bandwidth useage and mobile units and brand new filters and netservices are changing the landscape. Times have changed since 2000 and our first busy lists. Before silverware and glass -- they must have had totally different eating etiquette. Before additives and refrigerators they must have had extremely strict cooking rules. Major differences between Kosher and Chopsticks and Curing and canning .... Elbows on or off, burping and when not to, politics and religion at the dinner table?
 
This educational and explanable thread is most helpful in governance.  No not someone getting a nose out of joint over a cc or 3 or 6 posts or cross whatever, but talking about it so we can better understand and act better ourselves.  Good governance does not require decrees but rather examples.

I didn't realize that, and wonder if there is/was a standard.  I've
used Eudora and Thunderbird off-line and now am reading and usually
replying online.   Gmail is my first use of sending from a web-based
service.  Most of what I know about list management is as a LISTSERV
administrator.  This is very interesting.
