There is really only one rule (apart from normal netiquette) I want you to uphold:
When you write a _new_ letter to this mailing list, _don't_ use “reply” on an existing letter (to get the To: filled in).
It screws up threading!!!
If you're using Mail.app, you can control-click the “To” of an existing letter and select “New Message” to get a compose window with the “To” header filled in.
Threading is a very useful feature, and especially for me with this mailing list, since it's basically an archive of user feedback, and I'd like for the table-of-contents to show _every_ thread, which it currently doesn't, when one thread contain 2-3 _different_ subjects, because people have used reply (then it only show the first subject).
So PLEASE remember _not_ to use reply (for new letters)!!!

Sorry about that. Mea culpa. A colleague of mine told me off earlier for that. I just write replies in a hurry.
Will behave from now on.

For those using Thunderbird, you can right-click / option-click on the list email address (which is displayed for *every* email), and select "Compose Mail To".
