Subject: smooth pinholing

Ok Pinholers,
To make sure that the system works efficiently, please read the following-

FORMAT:
If you have the option, send your pinhole message in "PLAIN TEXT
FORMAT" only. This will get rid of those weird looking coded messages.

Hundreds of people will see your original message plus stuff like this:

         ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01C48C3D.12679B10
         Content-Type: text/html;
                charset="iso-8859-1"
         Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
         <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN">
         <HTML>
         <HEAD>
         <META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Content-Type" CONTENT=3D"text/html; =
         charset=3DWindows-1252">
         <META NAME=3D"Generator" CONTENT=3D"MS Exchange Server version =
         6.5.6944.0">
         <TITLE>stuff we do
         etc.....

RESPONDING:
When you reply, erase all other messages. Only submit your response.
This will help reduce the length of your messages (please see my next
email)

Hundreds of folk are on digest mode. By not erasing the original
message, you have at least doubled the message length.

SUBJECT:
Under the subject: write a subject (i.e. Subject: Goober Science).
DON'T leave it as re:Pinhole Digest #401. All messages are archived
and this will help them get filed in their appropriate location. This
also helps people figure out which messages to read.

If you are responding to a previous message - write the subject as
RE:Goober Science.
It should be RE: "title" (Write this name exactly as the original).

THANKS
