[Bitpim-devel] Reminder about personal email

This is just a reminder to people who do send email directly to me
that it isn't a particularly good idea. For support stuff I refer
you to http://bitpim.sourceforge.net/testhelp/support.htm
Note the first item in the "Do not do" section.

Most of the rest of the email should be posted to bitpim-devel or
bitpim-user, even if it doesn't seem relevant to all. Often the
answers are relevant or interesting to other people.

The other reason is that a substantial amount of my responses to
people get bounced back. If your address was @users.sf.net, it
bounces back almost all email with stupid error messages. I have
given up raising support issues at SF about this.

For many other people, they have stupid ISPs that bounce stuff
for arbitrary reasons (usually in the name of "Anti Spam"). At
that point you have wasted my time in answering, and noone gets
to see the answer. I will not do any form of clicking or vision
tests to confirm I am human, nor deal with whatever ranges of
ip addresses your ISP has decided to block today. (You mailed
me remember).

So in summary, just post to one of the lists, not directly to
me.
