Hi all
Further to recent discussion on hotly debated topics, here are a few of
reminders:
GUIDELINES ON ETIQUETTE
Sending messages to JISCmail lists is generally a matter of common sense
and courtesy, and users should be able to use their own sense of what is
appropriate to guide their behaviour.
These are practical guidelines, which should help you use JISCmail lists
in a way which will most benefit yourself and other people on the list.
Not all these guidelines work for all situations, so use your discretion
Please familiarise yourself with the JISCmail Acceptable Use Policy
<http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/help/policy/index.htm> and the following
points:
Respect copyright when forwarding messages, if in doubt check with the
author
Respect people's privacy, don't give out the private email addresses or
contact details of others
Think before cross-posting, some people belong to more than one list
Don't call someone names or be overtly rude, blatantly sarcastic or
condescending
Watch where that reply is going, should it go to the sender or the list?
Send your commands to the right address, [log in to unmask]
Make sure your email address is correct
Complain to the list owner, not the list
Suspend mail when going away, you can always catch up via the archives
Don't send attachments to JISCmail lists, use the files area associated
with your list
Use a meaningful subject line, it will increase the chances of it being
read and found
Write relevant messages appropriate to the purpose of the list
Don't quote an entire message when replying this leads to very long
messages
Keep your lines short and don't send long messages, waffle is
off-putting
Use a short, well-designed signature
...oh, and happy Christmas! :o)
