COMET NETWORK - PROGRAMMERS
LISTSERVE POLICY

November 2001
Click Here for List Serve Instructions

Welcome to the Comet Network list serve! This forum is designed for government access programmers to share information and exchange ideas. If you want to check out what equipment other operations are using, if others are experiencing the same technical problems you are having or just looking for some problem solving inspiration, this is the place! 

By creating a list serve for government programmers, we hope to encourage dialogue amongst us kindred spirits. This is not the place to debate the 9th Circuit Court’s decisions!

To provide us with additional useful information, we have invited a few video equipment dealers to join our list serve as well. They will provide us with pricing information, if requested, and advice as to what others are purchasing and trends they may see happening in our field and in the broadcast world as well. 

Also, we will be sharing the latest Comet Network news and updates as they happen on this list serve. 

Feel free to also share your successes and projects that have worked. And, don’t forget to share pictures too!  To send an email to the Comet listserve, send to CoMeTNetwork@listserve.com   To unsubscribe from the list at anytime, send an email to CoMeTNetwork-request@ListServe.com and write “unsubscribe” in the subject line. 

We look forward to your involvement and participation. Together, we can all help each other do our jobs better!  

Sincerely, 

Michael D. Smith and Robin Gee
Comet Coordinators

Posting to COMET’s Listserve
1. Please keep topics for discussion related to issues that concern SCAN NATOA and its members. Remember that all subscribers receive messages and replies. Please use private email when your messages are directed to a particular person.

2. When responding to a posting, please try to avoid including the original sender’s message. Most email software will automatically include the message unless you indicate otherwise. By eliminating the original message when possible, the message is cleaner and easier to read.

3. Please do not send attachments such as formatted documents, sound clips, or pictures to the list. This can make it difficult for subscribers to open mail.

These guidelines are subject to change depending on the requirements and needs of the listserve subscribers.

Note :Please use plain text in your email programs when possible. It really makes it easier on all users.

Also, to avoid the list serve getting spammed with auto responders, please use the words

 'I will be out of the office' anywhere in the first 50 lines of
the message.


Then any vacation mail will be stopped by the server and not reflected to the list. When such mail gets through the server it can easily lead to thousands of messages going through your list in a very short time. For more on auto responders and other tips - CLICK HERE
