BTW, everybody, you need not send messages to me *and* FFML. I'm subbed
to FFML, if you send a message there I will get it.

Alright. Now we go back, and remember all the posts that have
said something like this. <Moment of silence> Okay, then.
Everyone has said something like this before. I've posted
a message much like this one before (a couple of weeks ago).
Anyway, here's a couple of things to remember when you're
out posting.

1: If you get a private e-mail response, just respond to
the sender ONLY. 

Why instead of sending it to both him/her or the list?
Because he/she didn't post the message to the list, and
therefore did not want the list to have to read it. Hey,
it's a private e-mail, hence the name. 

2: If it's a response to something from the list, it 
would probably mean that the sender is on the list. (How
would they have gotten it?)

Note: #2 excludes Bert Van Vliet (aka: SkyKnight). He's
not on the list, but has his sources.

Thanks for putting up with me. (Oh, and don't send chain
letters or solicitation e-mails to the list and...

...READ THE FAQ. You should have done that when you
subscribed (many did, but some didn't). You unsubscribe
by sending to fanfic-request@fanfic.com, I believe.
Definitely not the list.
