I get many comments about the volume of email generated by the
communitydevelopmentbanking list. I moderate the list by editing out
postings that are not appropriate or not of general CDB interest.
Here is my "rule of thumb" list, which I regularly refine in order to guide
my editing. Comments appreciated.
CD Banking Discussion - Unlimited
Trade Associations - One posting a month
Newsletters - Once a quarter
CDFI Local updates - Annual
Conference - One Notice
Publications - One Notice
Job Listings - One Notice
Political campaigning - Never
Non CD Banking Topics - Never

Some friendly reminders to help keep communitydevelopmentbanking Listserve
working effectively:
Do post items of interest to the community development banking community.
Do include your name, organization, address, email, web page, etc at the
end of your message.
Do share your knowledge, resources and opinion.
Do post notices of conferences, job openings, legislative initiatives, and
publications.
Do use the Subject line.
Do keep messages as brief as possible.
Do invite your peers and co-workers to subscribe to the list.
Do save the unsubscribe instructions.
Don't use attachments, formatting, colors, images, HTML encoding. This
serves three purposes:
- keeps message size smaller
- allows all subscribers to read the message
- helps reduce the incidence of viruses.
