Just a few tips:
* Users do not have to be subscribed to this mailing list in order to
post to it.  When replying to a user's email please ensure the user's
email address is listed in the "To" field.
* Replies to this mailing list by default go to the user who sent the
email.  We've talked about this behavior in the past and do not plan
on changing it.
* You're encouraged to use "Reply All" or "Reply List" for the
majority of your responses so that future generations of Pidgin users
can benefit from your knowledge being indexed forever in Google.
However, it may make sense for you to email the user only when sending
private information, sending off-topic information, if the user is
taking a private poll, etc.
