We have a email List Server which will help to improve
communications among the membership of Acacia. Following are instructions to
help you understand the use of the List Server.
The name of the List Server is: Acacia16
A List Server is an automated E-mail system where the members on the
List Server can send a message to a single address and the message will be sent
to all E-mail addresses that are listed in the database file of the List
Server.
You must be a member on the List Server in order to send a message to the
members of the List Server.
The E-mail address for this List Server is:
Acacia16@Acacia16.org
The List Server is used in the following manner:
- The List Server is for members of Acacia to pass on information to the
membership that would be of interest to the majority of the members on the
List Server. Lengthy discussions or "statements of opinion on various
subjects" ARE NOT allowed on the List Server. JOKES and TRIVIA type
messages are also forbidden on this List Server.
- Poems, and related "subject matter" are not appropriate for this
List Server because of the volume of message traffic that they usually
generate. The goal for the List Server is to keep the message length and
volume of messages to a minimum for the benefit of the many Brethren who
receive their E-mail notifications through their office or "business"
communication systems.
- Experience has shown that as the volume of messages on a List Server
increase, the membership start to drop off. most members DO NOT
like to receive a high volume of messages. When they do, they simply drop
off the List Server to prevent the messages from being delivered to their
inbox. Once a member drops off, they usually do not rejoin and this
affects the effectiveness of the List Server. The List Server should be used to
send out important information but the volume of messages should be kept
to an absolute minimum.
Discussions on
national or local POLITICS or on RELIGIONS ARE NOT allowed on this List
Server.
A condition of joining the List Servers is that you will agree to
abide by the usage rules that have been established for the List Server. Anyone
who fails, by their actions, to follow the rules, will have their E-mail
address removed from the List Server and will be prevented from rejoining at
the discretion of the List Server owner.
A major point to remember. When you send a message to the list address,
it is received by a large number of members. This is not a tiled meeting.
You should treat your information or comments in the same manner as if you
are speaking outside of a tiled Lodge meeting. Do not discuss anything that is
not proper to be made known to a Non-Mason. Also, please remember the
obligations you accepted when you became a Mason. It is not proper to speak
badly about a Brother Master Mason or of the actions of the
officers of a Lodge in any form, more especially this form.
Honor your Brothers and the fraternity by your own proper
actions.
