[Lnc-business] cc'ing the LNC email list causes extra work for me

[Alicia Mattson]

In all the email traffic we are getting from members about the Arvin Vohra
situation, some LNC members have taken to cc'ing this email list on their
communications with party members.

The natural result is that the party member then does a "reply all", but
they can't post to this list.  It creates busy work for the moderators to
go clear those messages from the queue, and the members are annoyed or
confused when their message is rejected from our internal list.  One
person, after her message was rejected from this list, later told people
that she had been "banned" from our list.  Others are just confused and
then write asking why they can't post, which just makes the entire
situation take up even more of our time.  I think this has happened more in
the past two weeks than it did in the entire year prior.

Each of you can avoid causing this confusion for others and extra work for
me if you don't cc this email list on your external communications.  If you
want to forward the LNC a copy of your external communication, please just
do that as a separate step.
