What you don't seem to understand, sunshine, is that this is a private 
mail list which you join by invitation, its not a "free-for-all" Usenet 
newsgroup where any moron can say anything moronic and nobody cares what 
that may be; and as a private list it has rules which people who use the 
list must adhere to.

When you joined the list you were given the chance to read the 
conditions applicable to the correct usage of the mail lists, to wit-


      Technical guidelines


        Proper quoting:

Proper quoting is very important on mailing lists, to ensure that it is 
easy to follow the conversation. There are four fundamental rules:

    *

      When replying to an email, ensure that the email which you are
      replying to is indented with a symbol such as > or | (this is
      usually done from the preferences of your email client - most
      should do this by default).

    *

      When quoting, attribute the quoted text to the person who wrote it
      (again, most email clients will do this by default). Be careful to
      attribute the correct text to the correct person.

    *

      Write your email underneath the email which you are replying to.

    *

      Tailor your reply to fit the text which you are replying to. Do
      not quote the whole of the previous email - remove any unnecessary
      text. To avoid confusion, it's often a good idea to replace
      removed text with a brief indication that something has been
      removed, like /[snip]/.

There is also the Code of Conduct to be found here-

Only late last week a poster here was put on 'moderation' by the 
Moderator because he had a rant about Ubuntu and which did not meet the 
conditions of this list.
