<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear
Lowlanders,</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Welcome

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Before
I get to regular list business I need to draw your attention to the following:</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>SPECIAL
LIST BUSINESS</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>List
Mail v Private Mail</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Folks,
please make sure that you send private messages to me to my private address (<a href="mailto:sassisch@yahoo.com" target="_blank">sassisch@yahoo.com</a>),
especially if they could be taken as responses to what has been said in the
forum. If you do not make this distinction it could happen that your private
message ends up posted to the List. For administrative purposes, it's best if
you use <a href="mailto:lowlands.list@gmail.com" target="_blank">lowlands.list@gmail.com</a>.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Rejected
Mail</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Once
in a while subscribers tell me that they receive List mail but that their
posting submissions keep being rejected. In most cases, when I investigate this
it turns out that a given subscriber has List mail forwarded from his or her
subscribed e-mail address to another e-mail address, and, forgetting this, they
try to send posting submissions from the address at which they read the mail.
The list server rejects mail from that address because it is not subscribed.
Also, some people try to unsubscribe or change their subscription
configurations from addresses that are not subscribed. The simple solution is
to address the list server only from the subscribed e-mail address.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Language
Codes</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">In
the subject line of each Lowlands-L issue you find language codes in square
brackets ([ ]). This indicates which language or languages are used in that
issue. I now use the ISO codes where available (and make up the rest). I used
to provide the key for the abbreviations in the masthead, but that made for
overly large mastheads. Instead, the masthead now contains the URL of the page
of the key:</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://lowlands-l.net/codes.php" target="_blank">lowlands-l.net/codes.php</a></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">You
do not need to indicate the language varieties of you posting proposals. In the
rare event of me not knowing it I will ask you.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Village
Commons</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Here
is a reminder that we now have a social gathering place, a place for being in
touch with other Lowlanders and with friends away from “serious” LL-L business:<br>

you have anything in mind for any of those presentations but lack confidence
for some reason or other, please bear in mind that assistance is available.
Please write to my private address or to our administrative address (see above)
to propose or ask and also to send your works.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">If
you want to order books, CDs, DVDs, or pretty much anything else from Amazon
you might as well do it via these shops (in Canada,
Germany, France, Japan,
UK and USA) which have constantly changing
Lowlands-related selections. Alternatively use the links below that to do more
extensive searches while still affording referral commissions to LL-L. (<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/rummage/shops.php" target="_blank">http://lowlands-l.net/rummage/shops.php</a>)</p>

LIST BUSINESS</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Rules</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">A
few of you are still making three basic mistakes when submitting postings. So
here's a quick review:</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Do
not mix topics.</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Stay
with the subject line (and don't add stuff to it) when you respond. It is only
when you start a new thread that you may suggest a subject line.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">When
you respond to someone's posting, please only quote the relevant portion. If
you allow an entire issue to dangle as a quote behind your response I will
remove it, even if your response does not make much sense then.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Please
consult the rules and guidelines: <a href="http://lowlands-l.net/rules.php" target="_blank">lowlands-l.net/rules.php</a></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Another
request:</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Please
inform me if you route LL-L issues to or via email addresses other than those
you subscribed. Right now, once again I am getting failure reports concerning
email addresses that are not subscribed. This is really annoying, because I
have no idea whose they are, so I can't do anything about it.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Membership</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">As
most of you know in the meantime, our email addresses are visible only to
subscribers. I hope this will encourage more of you to come forward and
participate in our discussions.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
We send the postings in Unicode (UTF-8) format. You need to switch your view
mode to it if you want to see all "special" characters.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
You must always give us your name, given name and family name.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
If you forward Lowlands-L mail to another (alias) account, please give us the
address of that account. We need to identify it so we can do something in case
we get error messages from that server.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">If
you wish to leave ("unsubscribe" from) Lowlands-L, please follow the
appropriate steps as described below. DO NOT mark Lowlands-L mail as SPAM. If
you take this unethical action, it may detrimentally affect the entire list and
its subscribers, as well as LINGUIST, our server hosts. Besides, we will be
able to tell that it was you that did it and we will consider reporting you. SO
DON'T!</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
You must credit the writers of anything you quote. "Lowlands-L
wrote:" simply won't do. Several of you are still not getting and doing
this.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
Please continue already existing subject headers (rather than making up your
own for the same thing). If you do begin a new topic, please make sure
"Lowlands-L" or "LL-L" is in the subject line as well.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
DO NOT SEND POSTING SUBMISSIONS IN CAPITAL LETTERS ONLY.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
Many beginners, but also a few older hands, forget to provide their names with
their posting submission. Please remember that anonymous posting is not an
option, that you are obligated to give your given and family name, even if you
do not put them right next to each other.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Even
some people who have been with us for a while persistently ignore the following
rules:</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Keep
subjects separate: Only one topic per posting! Don't mix things up, please!</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Stick
to the subject title: Do not change the topic name in your responses. Just
stick with the one we have, even if you think it doesn't apply or is silly. I
will change it if I think it needs to be.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
<b>Edit quotes:</b> If you hit the "reply" button and simply write
your response before or after an unedited, complete quoted LL-L issue, please
do not complain to me that I have removed the quoted text in the published
version. It is proper email behavior to quote only the portions that are
relevant to your response.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br>
<b>Give credit:</b> Let us know who the authors of quoted text portions are. If
you just hit the "reply" button, it will automatically give
"Lowlands-L" as the author. That simply will not do. You must be more
specific, and you owe authors the courtesy of crediting them by name.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Sign
off:</b> If you feel like leaving the
List, please do not send the sign-off command to the posting address or to my
personal address.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Change
of Address</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">You
do no longer need to sign off and on again if your email address changes. It
suffices if you send me (<a href="mailto:sassisch@yahoo.com" target="_blank">sassisch@yahoo.com</a>)
a message giving us the old address and the new address. If you don't remember
under which address you were first subscribed, it will suffice if you give us
only the new address and your name.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>

working really well. It certainly beats the old, crude method of signing
off and on again.</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">Once in a while people find themselves
unsubscribed without notice. Some of them immediately suspect the worst:
that I have "booted them out" for some infraction or other. (I
know this for sure only about those that contact me. But it happens again
and again and involves even the nicest, best-behaved people.) Please do
not jump to this conclusion unless you have received prior reprimands and
warnings (which happen very rarely, have not happened at all for well over
two years). If you find yourself disconnected from Lowlands-L, the reason
is most likely that the automated server has unsubscribed your address
because of repeated "bouncing," i.e., because your mail servers
keep informing the list server that you cannot be reached or is filled
above quota. Most of the time this is due to temporary disconnection.</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">Sometimes the reason is that a subscriber's junk
mail filter (or "spam" filter) has not been "told" to
exempt Lowlands-L mail, which is why our mailings do not arrive in your
in-boxes.</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">So, if Lowlands-L mail stops coming, please
first check your "spam" filters and adjust them if necessary, and
only contact me about the problem if all of the above fails.</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="">Should you indeed be disconnected, please write
to me or resubmit an application. I'll be more than happy to bring you
swiftly back to the fold.</li></ul>
