For what it is worth, I believe the original author accidently sent the initial post to the list - as a consequence of hitting the "reply all" button, rather than the "reply" button. Since then, there have been a further 8 posts to the list [including this one]. The bulk of those posts could have been sent offline.

If you want to send an email to a BAus person, insert their address into the "to" box, rather than hitting the "reply" button to one of their posts to BAus. That way you will avoid sending a private message to the list, and the subsequent cascade of online posts. Those of you annoyed by such posts should respond directly to the original author [ie offline] so that the thread dies off rather continuing to flare up.

Regards, Laurie.

Would the people who want to chit-chat about this stuff, please take their
non-bird related messages somewhere else.
