Regarding advertising of any items for sale either by individuals or
dealears on this list, I think it would be better most of transactions take
place off the list.
To that end, I would like to propose that everybody puts as part of his/her
signature his/her e-mail address in the manner that Eudora Pro or other
e-mail software recognizes it and highlights it. When you click on the
highlighted address, the software will pop up your reply e-mail on the
window with the e-mail address already inserted. Thus this feature will
reduce the possibilities of sending personal e-mails to the list.
The e-mail address has to read like this. mailto:tomokoy@xxxxxxxxx
The important thing is to put "mailto:";
Likewise the Web address presented with "http://"; will get highlighted in
Eudora Pro. If you click on it, you can bring up your browser and the
particular Web address.
I am wondering how many of you use such e-mail software and whether
everyone using such software is aware that such a neat trick exists. If
everyone with a Web site uses that type of signature, dealears on the list
can encourage people to visit their sites without any explicit words of
solicitation in the text of their e-mails.
Look at my signature and try out how it works if you have never tried these
tricks before.
