[List] Use of HDAA List Server

Fellow List Members,

I need to be sure that everyone receiving this message is aware of their 
ability to send messages directly to everyone on the list. This will 
work by sending a basic message to "list at HDAA.info" from the address 
that receives messages through the list.

There are a few restrictions for prompt delivery of the message (without 
going to an "admin" for approval):

  * The sending address must be an address on the list.
  * The "to" and "cc" lists of the message should be limited (not part
    of a "send it to the world" type distribution).
  * There should not be a big attachment.

There are also a few general restrictions that have not been a problem 
but could be:

  * Avoid controversial topics (political, etc.; an invitation to a
    debate is probably OK but an invitation to a campaign rally not your
    own is iffy).
  * Keep messages "clean."
  * Do not exploit for commercial purposes (announcement of your new
    business probably OK, but repeating it probably not).
  * Don't sign up folks without ties to the old TC-HD. (But, thus far,
    interested family members of HD alumni, alumni of other TC
    divisions, HD customers, and HD suppliers have been welcomed.)

This site is sponsored by HDAA. I say "probably" regarding restrictions 
because it is ultimately the HDAA Board that will make decisions, but in 
about 20 years there has never been an issue that I have heard about. 
Gates can be installed if open usage should prompt abuse.

So, please feel free to make good use of this resource!

Cec
(HDAA Secretary)
