Dear Brass-Band listees,
A point of Netiqette:
  It is fairly clear that many Brass-band listees are replying to the recent
offer of free music by using the <R>eply option of their email program. This
apparently sends the 'reply' message to everyone on the brass-band mailing
list, rather than just the originator of the initial posting. Everyone gets
(and pays for) an unintended copy of these messages, whether they want it or
not.
  When replying to individuals from posts to a mailing list, it is accepted
"Netiqette" to alter the "To:" field of the reply, if necessary, so that the
message goes directly to the individual's address, rather than the list
address. This is done easily with <C>opy and <P>aste commands.

Just a suggestion.


Philip Anderton
Sydney.
