There aren't any strict rules, but I think everyone accepts
the following:

   1. Try to stay on the topic of Euphoria programming
        or closely-related issues.

   2. Don't attach large files (larger than say 30K) to your messages,
       and especially avoid posting .exe files.

I might also add the following:

     3. Avoid quoting the entire, large message that you are
         replying to. Just pick out the relevant bits to remind
         us of what the other person said. After all, we have
         probably just read the other persons message, and it's
         still in our inbox.

     4. If you find that you've posted 36 messages in the first
         10 days of December, far more than anyone else,
          it might be time to relax and do some Christmas
          shopping or something. I won't mention any names,
          but his initials are Everett L.(Rett) Williams
          - whoops!
