From the LM_NET Etiquette Guidelines:

> 1.  Be _extremely_ careful when replying  to the sender
>     of an LM_NET message.  Many e-mail systems will send your
>     reply to the entire list of LM_NET members if you simply use a
>     reply command.
>       NEVER post a reply message to the list which would not be
>     of interest to most members.  Just send it to the individual who
>     posted the original message to which you are responding
>       It is considered wasteful of the time of list members to be
>     pestered with meaningless (to them) messages which are of value
>     only to a small number of people.
>
> 2.  Think before you post. Do I really want to say this to the entire
>     world (LM_NET)?  Reread what you wrote.  Did you really say what
>     you intended to?  Once a message is sent, it can't be retrieved.
>       Sending to the individual or to the entire group is an important
>     consideration.  Normally, send only to the individual person who
>     requested the information.  If they receive a lot of replies, they
>     will probably post them to the group.
