682 | Do not cross-post when sending messages to a list! Sending the same message to |
|
|
683 | more than one list at a time leads to fragmentation of the thread when some |
|
|
684 | people reply on one list, and some on another list. There's no guarantee that |
|
|
685 | the recipients of your message are on both lists. Choose just one list when |
|
|
686 | sending a message. |
