And, i hate it when i can't approve your post to sust-mar.

Dear sust-martians

I never reject posts b/c i disagree with the content. Sadly, every week i
have to delete otherwise great sust-mar messages b/c of their format. I
don't have time to send a personalised message each time. You get a cold,
prerecorded rejection message. So, please read this to find out WHY your
message gets rejected.

Most of the time, it's b/c you used html/rich text format. Go to your
"Format" pull-down menu and select "Plain Text." Then resend your message
and it should work.

Other reasons include COPYRIGHT infringements. I can't put your message on
sust-mar if it contains something copyright. Newspaper articles are
usually copyright protected. That's why i couldn't post the Globe & Mail
article on why the Green Party is right wing (as much as i wanted to --
b/c the Party is fighting the "left wing" label).

Another reason ... you are replying to a sust-mar message. You included
the original in your reply. That's natural enough to do. But, consider the
poor digest subscriber who has to read the original again and again b/c of
this! So, please keep the same subject line but discard the original when
you reply.

Those are common reasons. Of course, if you are ever in doubt you can
email me to ask.

Keep up your various virtuous ventures ...
~paul :)
