Listserv etiquette annoyance
Ever have someone on your listserv accidentally send something out, and then send out an apology for doing so in triplicate?

Yeah - great idea. You fucked up and annoyed us by clogging our mailbox and you want to make up for it by further clogging our mailbox. Genius. You know what? Next time you should include a virus in your apology emails and finish the job, jackass. :grr: :nuke: :argh:

(Note: I'm not really that mad about it, it's just something that's never made any sense to me at all.)

2. Yes. It's really annoying.
One professional listserv I'm on had issues with doubling and tripling posts, so I got 120 emails in one day just from that listserv. Lots of them were "sorry about the double posts" and those replies were doubled too. :grr: I learned my delete key is my friend...
