<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>I really wish everyone would stop saying they "apologize for cross posting" to multiple lists. It's dumb. <br><br>It's a common practice. So why would you want to apologize for it? What fraction of list readers are actually bothered by cross posting?<br>
</div></div>What other activities do you apologize for, as you're doing it? "Uhhh... I know I'm not supposed to do this, but I'm going to--I'm sorry--do it anyway." If it's bad ettiquette, you wouldn't be doing it in the first place, right?<br>
</div>People know the difference between relevant announcements and spamming. If I need to know if a message has been cross-posted, I check the recipients.<br><br></div>This is just my opinion: all I can do is try to convince you not to keep spreading the word virus.<br>
