Over the last few weeks there have been a number of postings to the wrong
address, illegal commands to the list/arcsever etc. So here's a reminder of
the FAQ for this mailing list:

Welcome to the brass band mailing list!

This is a long mail item, please read it all. If you've seen it before still
give it a quick scan as items are added all the time.

DO NOT THROW THIS MAIL AWAY.

This mail is sent to all new users, and twice a year to all existing users.

Last change: 25/5/96.

Rules:

1) All articles to be relevant to followers of the banding scene. If you're
   a violin, clarinet, trumpet player or play another non-brass band instrument,
   or if you don't play a musical instrument at all you are still of course
   welcome, however please be careful to keep your posting on subject. If you're
   unsure what a brass band is either mail the keeper or browse the entry for
   brass bands in the Oxford Dictionary of music.
2) Absolutely no flaming. Although political correctness is easily taken too
   far, please remember that your posting will be read by people all over the
   world who may have vary different backgrounds to you.
3) Articles for submission should be sent to brass-band@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
4) Signatures to be no more than 4 lines or include any graphics.
5) Any quotes should be at the *top*, not the bottom, of responses and
   shouldn't be more than 50% of the posting size.

   "arcserver@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" containing the word HELP in the body.
   Archives are also available via the WWW page. See below.
8) Any bounced mail items and I'll have to remove you. So that it's not
   without notice I'll let your postmaster know. If you suddenly stop getting
   messages please contact me because I may have had to remove you and
   failed to find\guess the name of anyone at your site to let you know
   what I'm doing.
9) If you're going away on a long holiday or your machine's name is about
   to be renamed, or anything is likely to happen which may cause some
   difficulty getting the mail through to you please unsubscribe. You can
   always resubscribe later and access, via the arcserver, any items you
   may have missed.
10)Feel free to contact the list keeper njh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, for any
   reason.

   Tenor Horn, Baritone, Euphonium and Bass, not Alto Horn, Tenor Horn,
   Baritone and Tuba.
12)Feel free to send a message of introduction to the list.
13)listserver@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and arcserver@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx are
   automatic mailboxes, so don't try to enter into a conversation with them!
14)Do not enable 'return-receipt-to:', or 'confirm-reading-to' headers or
   anything similar when posting to the list, the confirmations will often
   be posted to the list rather than to you.
