spam is send to a large number of recipients; I don't see how what is |
| 10 |
discussing here is doing that, apart from extending this discussion. |
| 11 |
It's not arrogant; it's a technical difference, which sets up different |
| 12 |
approaches. That's why developers are requested to follow the etiquette. |

People that participate maybe are on the list and the ones seeking |
| 18 |
for an answer might browse the archives. |

Here's something that works for the both of us: Request someone to not |
| 23 |
CC you in a follow-up mail when you catch them do it, they'll respect |
| 24 |
that; that's a guarantee that we can be certain that you are subscribed. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
That way; you respect that I want to spent my time to be guaranteed to |
| 27 |
be useful, I respect that you don't want to be CC-ed in follow-up mails. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Similarly; if someone is off-list; it takes a single mail to keep me |
| 30 |
from sending additional mails. As it clarifies a disengagement; that |
| 31 |
unsubscribing is meant to be a disengagement, I can't find that rule... |
