That message should be sent out to new subscribers, and perhaps sent
once to every one on the list (as a seperate message for those of us who
receive it as a digest).
It might also include some of the list etiquette issues which keep

1. No attachments
2. Send as plain text, not HTML
3. Trim the quoted text in your responses & and none of the "he
said, she said" format.
