Yes, since we do not have any guide lines set for posting on mailing
lists, so I expect that every one should follow these guide lines.<br>
<br>
If you want to amend or add some points in it, you are most welcome.<br>

the mailing list type</strong> </span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
-The "User" lists where you can send questions and comments
about configuration, setup, usage and other "user" types of
questions. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
-The "Developer" lists where you can send questions and
comments about the actual software source code and general
"development" types <br>
of questions. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;"> <br>
Some questions are appropriate for posting on both the
"user" and the "developer" lists. In this case, pick one and
only one. Do not cross post.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
Asking a configuration question on the developers list is
frowned upon because developers' </span><span
style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">time is
as precious as yours. By contacting <br>
them</span><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;
font-size: small;"> directly instead of the user </span><span
style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">base
you are abusing resources. In fact, it is unlikely that you
will get a quicker answer, if at all.</span><br>
<p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;"><b><span
style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">*
Keep your messages closely related to the topic of the

Keep your email short and to the point; use a suitable
subject line.</strong></span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
If your email is more than about a page of text, chances are
that it won't get read by very many people. </span><br>

excessively quoting previous </span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
messages in the thread (trim the quoted text down to the
most recent/relevant messages only). </span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
If you are replying to a previous email, it is a good idea
to only quote the</span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
parts that you are replying to and to remove the unnecessary
bits. This makes</span><br>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">
it easier for people to follow a thread as well as making
the email archives easier to search and read. </span><br>

<strong>Avoid including log output</strong> </span><br>

Select only the most relevant lines, or place the </span><span
