The below is typically muddled. Netiquette says one should not send one message to someone privately and *the identical text* to the list in a different message. It leaves the recipient unsure about whether the thought was a private communication or not. This is what Jim has done twice this week. It is, however, perfectly acceptable to do a reply-to-all when engaging in list conversations (provided that the CC line is not too long, etc.), and that is what I have done and am doing. -Declan On Wed, Feb 14, 2001 at 04:08:29PM -0600, Jim Choate wrote: > > He posted a comment the other day about my sending private notes was > unwaranted in responce to comments made on the public list. > > I was wondering why he got them at all because previously he hadn't been > receiving them.
