[TheForge] E-MAIL LIST RULES (ie:Ben Barrett)

[Dave Mudge]

Ben (and other list members)
The robot that controls this list has cretin very basic likes and dislikes.
It does not like MULTIPLE ADDRESSES in the mail that it reads.
It does not like hrml or rich text. It only likes PLAIN TEXT.
It does not even allow ATTACHMENTS.
It does not like LONG messages. (Ben's was 49872 bytes)
PLEASE clean up your forwarded e-mails.
You are wasting huge amounts of band width
that someone, somewhere has to pay for.
Take 5 seconds to DELETE the string of the previous messages
that follow a forwarded e-mail.
The ROBOT sent me the message below after it would not allow your
long message.

I'm not as experienced as the others here, to give you life-or-death
safety advice, but I know the first firing of most gas forges will be
stinky -- I've read it suggested that the first firing start slow &
low but build up to full/high temp, and for it to be done outdoors, as
the kaowool will "set", that is melt a bit
