Folks,
I would like to add another suggestion to George's above. If you use resend
(which is an easy way to redirect a new message to meteorobs) but change
the topic of discussion from the origianl message, then please change the
subject in your header to correspond to the new idea. As an example we had
tens of messages recently under the subject header Halloween Meteors and
none of those messages after the first few had anything at all to do with
halloween meteors. Most email software allows a change in the subject even
with a resend.
Taking just a little time to do this is just a matter of digital politness
and helps everyone who tries to control their messages by using the subject
headers.
Thank you in advance for following the suggestion,
Terry
