Never heard of anyone deciding which Kenwood related messages go to the
archives and which don't. Of course, if the message(s) are in bad taste,
spam, or other information not in the best interest of the reflector, I'm
sure the list administrator could remove the message(s). However, in our
case right now, you sent me your message to both me and the reflector
list. I'm responding back to you and the reflector list. So, I've read
two identical messages from you and you'll read two identical messages
from me. They most likely will not arrive in our mailboxes at the same
time. All four messages will state in the Subject line Re: [Kenwood]
Archive Question. However, only the two that were sent through the
reflector will appear in the archives.
