Dear all,

I did not know about the word "AD" to be added in the subject line and =
will do it from now on, when I indicate to the List that we have new =
items for sale on our web site.
Sorry for my recent "AD", which wasn't indicated so.
Kind regards.

  Subject: RE: [meteorite-list] ebay listings, steve choner's attempt =
for a new group

  Chirsian and all:

  The list policy is already clear. Policy#8 states - "Do not post - =
major advertisement- emails to the list - use a 'sale' link". This =
policy was later ammended on the list to require the word "AD" in the =
subject line so that list members would be clear that the email =
contained an ad.

  I think the problem arrose when some list members posted their ebay =
auctions daily, spamming the list. For example one member in particular =
would say........

  "I have ebay auctions ending in 7 days" then "I have ebay auctions =
ending in 6 days", then "I have ebay auctions ending in 5 days", etc =
etc. You get the idea.

  Members won't even quit fighting and using vulgar language on this =
list which is a much much bigger problem than the occasional ebay ad =
announcement.

  As long as the word "AD" appears in the subject, I do not see a =
problem as this allows all list members to decide for themselves if they =
wish to open an "AD" email.
