Please forgive me for crashing, but y'all are striking some major chords!

DON'T assume that everyone is on a PC! Stop sending me isht with . exe, .pif, .sca, and all those other crazy Windows extensions! Yeah, I know I have Virtual PC on my Mac - but you know, I refuse to open that stuff on GP.

I'd like to add that, if a forward is important enough to send, it's important enough for the sender to delete ALL the headers, and ALL the carats!

NO ONE is keeping track of how many emails are sent, so no one is going to give money for any amount of emails sent.

No amount of emails trigger dancing Barbies or any other "fun" optic.

Jesus loves me, whether or not I forward your emails.

...and so many more!

No email hijacking PLEASE!! If I send an email to 10 people about something specific do NOT reply to the email and change the subject. That is email hijacking and it is NOT nice! Doing that is the equivalent to interrupting a conversation. Just send a NEW email OR change the subject line and send the email.

AMEN!

Also, if you're going to forward something, PLEASE put everyone's email address in the Blind Copy section. There could be someone on that list who doesn't want to get bombarded with emails from another person who's on the list.

Amen to that! One of my friends sends mass emails to all of her friends and includes my email addy. We run in different circles so I am not friends with her friends so I don't want them to have my email addy. And to make things even more annoying, there are a few people that I don't talk to anymore who are included in her list, people who I don't want to have my contact info.
