[Histonet] Re: replies to Histonet Digest

[Prior, Andrew]

To All Histonetters.

Just to add to what Gayle said. 
Please don't reply to Histonet digest - for those of us who receive the
digest it becomes impossible to find where one digest ends and the latest
one restarts. Just cut and paste the relevant message and add a new subject
line. 
This will help you get a response for 2 reasons:
 1- people won't automatically delete your message as Gayle said she tended
to do (as do I) when they see RE:Histonet Digest as the subject line. 
And 2 - you are less likely to be thought of as a fool (no offence) who
can't follow simple instructions and guidelines for posting to a list
server. (this will be where someone reminds me of one of my mistakes when
posting....)
Most people will happily try to help others on Histonet, even if questions
are very basic, but get fed up when they have to hunt for ages to work out
what the message is.
I enjoy reading the postings on the digest, even those that aren't directly
relevant to my field, and have learnt a great deal. Digest replies drive me
nuts though.
Histonet is a wonderful resource so please use it wisely.

Dear all who receive Histonet Digest,

Don't send a reply to Histonet Digest - please.  It kicks back all the 
messages to those who do not use the digest format, something they may not 
want to get again and again.  Some of us tend to delete RE: Histonet Digest 
since there is nothing specific in the subject line.

Send your answers to:   Histonet <@t> lists.utsouthwestern.edu.  AND use the 
subject line with specific information to alert others you have commentary, 
answers to questions,  or inquiries.

This way all those who do not using digest format are not overloaded with 
uyneeded unwanted ton of daily messages.

Thanks, folks
