POSTING GUIDELINES

I. MISSION:
The PsoriaticArthritis listserv exists to mediate
international communication for PA sufferers, their
families and friends on subjects pertaining to the
disease, treatment, and life with psoriasis and
arthritis.

II. ADDRESS:
a. All mail meant for distribution to the list
should be sent to: psoriaticarthritis@yahoogroups.com
b. All mail directed to individuals should be sent
directly to the individual in question. Addresses for
all listmembers can be found in the "Members" section
of the YahooGroups webpage:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/PsoriaticArthritis/members

III. SUBJECT LINES:
Address lines which indicate the subject of the
message should be as concise and as precise as
possible. People who are searching the archives don't
know what to make of message threads named "Oh MY!"
or "Digest 2703"!
a. Poor examples: - Question
- Pain
- Shaking hands?
b. Good Examples - Celebrex and DMARDs?
- Stomach pain
- Polite ways of refusing a handshake?

IV REPLYING:
When replying to a note try to be concise and
preserve bandwidth!
a. Keep an appropriate subject line. If subscriber
Seals Croft writes a note with the subject line
"Enbrel and stomach pain" use the same subject, not
"Digest 2703" or "Replying to Croft".
b. Copy just the appropriate parts of the original
letter, not the entire letter or digest.
c. Avoid replies which do not include
substantial new information, often called "Yeah, you
are so right!!!" emails.

V. EDITORS:
All messages must pertain to the subjects above and
the list editors reserve the rights to edit, publish,
or refuse to publish any email.

VI GETTING TECHNICAL HELP:

Both the PsoriaticArthritis e-mail list and the webpage are run by and for PA sufferers, their families and friends. There is no medical authority associated with either the list or the homepage, and none is either claimed or implied.
