List Members FAQ

Why am I getting ALL this mail? Why are all these people emailing ME?

See above. :) You joined a list, most likely a discussion list, and what that means is someone posts something, other people reply and every email, the original message and all replies, get sent to YOU! If you don't want all that mail, you have some options, one is to switch to digest, you'll get a batch of emails all in one message, usually at least once a day, but possibly more if the list is really busy. If the list has a website message archive, you can switch to no mail and then scan the website archives for any interesting topics. Or quit the list, perhaps it's not really what you're interested in or there may be another list that's less busy and suits you better.
