The Following are the guidelines to the mailing list users

• Please respect the fact that bandwidth is not infinite. Not everyone reads email through high-speed connections, so if your posting involves something like the content of config.log or an extensive stack trace, please consider putting that information up on a website somewhere and just provide a URL to it. Remember, too, that these postings will be archived indefinitely, so huge postings will simply inflate the size of the archives long after their purpose has expired.
• Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DO NOT SHOUT!!!!!(if you don't know already , text written in uppercase letter is considered as shouting).
• While replying, please include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but do not overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who did not read the original message to understand what you are talking about.
