Guidelines for MAPICS-L mailing list

Monthly posting of the guidelines for participation in the MAPICS Mailing 
List.

Keep to the subject.  The topic of the list is MAPICS (Manufacturing, 
Accounting and Production Inventory Control System), the ERP software 
package originally developed by IBM and now sold by Infor Global Solutions. 
Any discussion related to MAPICS in particular or ERP systems in general is 
acceptable.  Discussion of unrelated topics will be actively discouraged.

When quoting messages, do not quote the entire message.  Just quote the 
parts that are needed to make the appropriate references.

Flames are absolutely prohibited.  If you disagree with someone, feel free 
to argue the facts, but no personal attacks will be tolerated.

Political discussion is completely inappropriate for this, and most,
midrange.com hosted lists.

The official language of the MAPICS Mailing List is English.

Do not post personal messages.  Please use direct E-Mail.  This list is 
international in scope and personal messages just end up costing money.  Job 
and/or employment messages are forbidden.  Please use the various jobs 
oriented conferences, such as [email protected]

Advertising products, repeated postings, etc, are strictly prohibited. 
Also, if you have a solution that will specifically help another 
participant, feel free to tell that person.  And finally, if you are a 
vendor, please identify yourself as such... do not try to pass yourself off 
as a user of your own products (even if you are).

PLEASE NOTE: When posting to the list, any personally identifying
information in your message will be included in the list.  Email
addresses, however, are masked when being formatted for the list
archives.  If you include a standard signature in all messages, consider
using the internet standard for signature separator (as defined in RFC
3676, http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3676) of '-- ' (that's dash dash
space).  The list archiving software will automatically stop including
the message when it encounters the marker.

PLEASE do not report list messages to your mail providers abuse / spam
department.  This results in a black mark against midrange.com and,
depending on the mail provider's policies, can cause mail delivery 
delays for everyone who uses both midrange.com with that mail provider.  
midrange.com does treat abuse reports very seriously and acts upon them 
immediately.  When abuse reports are received, and the reporting person 
can be identified, they will be removed from all lists immediately ... 
and then a follow-up email will be sent.

If you wish to be unsubscribed from a list and cannot do so through the 
normal mechanisms (identified at the bottom of every list message), 
please contact the list owner or support-FMtJrHiV//lnDLsaKlm4mFaTQe2KTcn/@public.gmane.org for assistance.

When posting a long weblink (URL), consider using http://bitly.com to
shorten it.  Some mail programs wrap long text and cause URL's to break.

By posting to this mailing list, you are granting MIDRANGE.COM and

This list IS copyrighted as a compilation.  Republication of this mailing 
list, for anything other than personal use, without the explicit permission 
of the list owner is a violation of U.S. Copyright Law and will be dealt 
with as such.

Collecting or "Mining" of email address from this forum, or any related web 
archive, is strictly and explicitly prohibited (not to mention that it is 
extraordinarily unprofessional).

Violation of the above guidelines will be determined by the moderator and 
will result in the offending party either a) being forced to run Application 
Recovery Procedures for MAPICS I on a System/34 with worn out diskettes and 
impatient, cranky users, or b) permanent disconnection from the conference 
(you decide which is worse).
