1.0 PURPOSE
===========
1.1 This is the Honeypot maillist Quarterly Reminder. The purpose
of this post (sent every quarter) is to be a friendly reminder
on the issues and etiquete of this maillist.
1.2 It is hoped that these rules will help standardize posts, and
reduce the noise level. The goal is to improve the overall
quality of our list.
2.0 SENDING EMAILS
==================
2.1 The purpose of this maillist is to discuss honeypot technologies
and anything honeypot related (such as risks, legal issues,
deployment, deception, etc). Material that appears as a
blatant advertisement, or material not related to honeypots,
will be blocked.
2.2 Individuals new to the maillist are HIGHLY encouraged to first
read the honeypot maillist FAQ. Any post that can be answered
by the FAQ will be blocked, and the author of the email will be
directed to the FAQ. This reduces the noise level of the
maillist.

2.3 When you reply to a posting, please trim your reply so only
pertinent material applies. Also, include your response near
the top of the posting. We do not want to have threads that
have replies responding to replies responding to replies, and
then your reply is located at the bottom of a loooooong email.
2.4 Please post in ASCII format only, no HTML, XML, or anything
else ending in ML :)
2.5 Please do not send attachments. Instead, post a URL so folks
can access your file(s) online. Not only does this save
bandwidth and address security issues, but other folks not on
our maillist can then access your file(s) and learn about what
you are up to.
2.6 Please no cross postings. This means do not send posts to the
honeypots maillist that are also copied to other maillists. Things
get real messy when people from other lists start cross-posting
and responding to each other. The only exception is for
announcements, such as conferences or tools.
2.7 If you are going on vacation, or put your email account into
some type of automated response mode, please ensure it does
not auto-reply to postings on the maillist. Any accounts that
do auto-reply are immediately removed.
3.0 LIST MAINTENANCE
====================
3.1 Every mail posted to this maillist is archived. You can search
and review past postings at

3.2 Maillist Maintenance FAQ
http://www.securityfocus.com/popups/forums/honeypots/faq.shtml
3.2 How do I unsubscribe:
Send an e-mail message to honeypots-unsubscribe_at_securityfocus.com
from the subscribed address. The contents of the subject or
message body do not matter. You will receive a confirmation
request message to which you will have to answer.
As always, if you have any suggestion on how to improve the maillist,
email me directly.
Thanks!
