   <li>Make sure that you are using the proper list. In particular, don't
       send user-related questions to developer-related mailing lists.
+  <li>When replying to messages on the mailing list, do
+      not send a carbon copy (CC) to the original poster unless
+      they explicitly request to be copied.
+  <li>Do not send messages to lists to which you are not
+      subscribed without noting that fact in the body of your
+      message.  Do this for each and every message you send to
+      a list to which you are not subscribed.
+  <li>Do not send automated &quot;out-of-office&quot; or
+      &quot;vacation&quot; messages to any list.
   <li>Never send your messages in HTML; use plain text instead.
-      Avoid large attachments.
+  <li>Do not send large attachments.
+  <li>Wrap your lines at 80 characters or less for ordinary
+      discussion.  Lines longer than 80 characters are acceptable
+      for computer-generated output (e.g., <em>ls -l</em>).
   <li>Do not use foul language; besides, some people receive the lists
       via packet radio, where swearing is illegal.
   <li>Try not to <em><a href="http://www.foldoc.org/foldoc/foldoc.cgi?query=flame";>
       flame</a></em>; it is not polite.
