|
|
I started a thread a few weeks ago asking for a separate group for Ebay auction announcements. What was the outcome? I thought that there were some good suggestions.

(...) It is not a requirement. Using a filter is great if it helps you reduce the number of eBay announcements you have to read. But by forcing others to put eBay in their title you are, in effect, saying that you want everyone else to conform to (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
