Re: LIST MODERATION RULES

[<mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to ask that the list rules be amended to allow us to include our email address as I have done mine on this email. Which is substituting at for @ as since I posted an email with my actual complete address this afternoon my SPAM has doubled. When I changed my list settings and stopped putting my email at the end of postings my Spam load dropped of a 1/4 of what it is when my complete address is there for everyone to see. SPAM SUCKS, I'm not trying to hide form anyone!

>Below are the current rules for the list as posted at http://www.amxfiles.com/amc-list/index.cfm
>I would like suggestions as to changes to these rules. If no changes are suggested reasonable enforcement of these rules will commence as soon as practical. The only change I am proposing is that the second infraction gets one kicked off the list for 30 days, third for a minimum of six months. Six month bans will require a written request to be allowed back on the list. Access will be granted after review of the actions by the moderation group, and will be decided by a majority vote of the group. The names of the moderation group will be posted in the next few days.

>AMC-List Rules
>Subscribers who violate these policies will receive one warning. The second infraction will get you kicked off the list.
>
>   1. The topic of the list is AMC vehicles, loosely defined as vehicles designed, engineered, manufactured, and/or sold by the American Motors Corporation. General, non-AMC-specific technical information is also permitted if it is of value to people working on AMC vehicles.
>
>   2. All messages must include the author's name and email address in the text of the message.
>
>   3. When replying to list mail, do not send the reply to the list unless it will be of interest to the list. Reply to the individual author if your message is not of general interest. In particular if you want to purchase an item for sale that has been posted to the list, please reply to the individual posting the item - not the entire list. It is important to check the address in your reply since it will go to the entire list by default in most cases.
>
>   4. The "Subject" line should reflect the content of the message. If you change the subject of a thread, change the "Subject" line.
>
>   5. In replies, quote as much of the original message as necessary to establish the context. Edit out unnecessary material.
>
>   6. Abusive or insulting messages are absolutely not allowed. All list members, and their vehicles, must be treated with respect.
>
>   7. Advertising is permitted on the list, within the following guidelines:
>          * Up to two ads in any calendar month per subscriber
>          * No more than 100 lines of text (about 5K) per ad
>          * Ads must be specifically geared toward AMC enthusiasts.
>          * Once a request for or offer of merchandise has been posted to the list, all subsequent correspondence concerning a transaction must be conducted off the list.
>
>      If you are selling a vehicle, we suggest that you use the following format to advertise it. Simply cut and paste this template into an e-mail to the list and change the information as applicable. This will help prevent ten replies all asking about a detail you forgot to include, and it will also help you sell your vehicle faster.

That in turn will help reduce the volume of unnecessary list mail!
>
>   8. If mail to a subscriber is "bounced" back to the list administrator due to a full mailbox or technical error on the subscriber's system, the subscriber may be removed from the list in order to reduce unnecessary load on the AMC-List system. Subscribers should unsubscribe or set their mail status to "postpone" to avoid such problems when they are unable to check their mail.
