TuxTown Netiquette Page
Rationale:
We all know those moments when you want to give a newbie on the net a
reference to netiquette pages but can't find your favorite links
anymore. On this page I try to collect some useful links on the
subject...
Legislation:
Note for Hotmail users:
- Some time ago Hotmail changed there service in a way which made
Internet Explorer (the browser) users send mail in HTML format. That's
against the RFC's and the netiquette and also very annoying. So please, if you
use Hotmail, make sure the 'rich text' option is
turned off.
Note for Outlook users:
- Outlook is also one of those programs which use 'rich text' as
default setting for sending mail. Note that if for some obscure reason
you don't want to turn it off for all your mail, in outlook you can
turn it of for specific addresses via the properties item in the 'Personal
Address Book'. Do this at least for all mailinglists you are subsribed to.
But better:
turn it off
completely.
