I got this note this morning myself; I wondered why it wasn't addressed
directly to B-Greek--we don't currently have any mechanism for preventing
people from posting to the list when they're not list-members. But a couple
of my pet-peeves are (1) individuals addressees in a long list--usually
this means spam; (2) senders of messages--especially when the messages are
addressed to real individuals--who identify themselves only by pseudonyms.
This latter DOES INDEED violate B-Greek protocol.
