[Coco] Suggestions on email list Etiquette

*Email List Etiquette for everyone to follow. *
   -
   - Always remember that you are interacting with people so be mindful of
   what you write; never write anything you would not say to someone directly.
   Never use a list for personal attacks or profanity; if you would not say it
   in a crowded room for all to hear, do not write it in a message.
   - Write only public (never private) messages; lists are a public forum,
   personal comments or crticisms should be sent directly to the person, not
   the entire list.
   - When you are replying to a list message be sure to note to whom you
   are replying; lists are often set up to reply to the list. If your reply is
   not of interest to everyone on the list change the TO: address to the
   person to whom your reply is directed.
   - Sign your posting including brief contact information. You can use the
   signature that you have set up in your mail client or simply type in the
   information at the end of your note.
   - List owners should be very careful about involuntary subscriptions.
   People do not like to be subscribed to a list without their consent
   (exceptions are class lists and work group lists where subscription is a
   requirement of the job).
