1.3 Guidelines for posting to the mailing list
Life for mailing list subscribers will be easier if everybody
complies with the following guidelines:
- Before posting, please: browse or search the archives –
  links are available in the ``Contacts'' section  of the   web site.
  Most questions are asked over and over again. Also: make an attempt
  to search the
  available documentation, notably the FAQs and the User Guide(s).
  The answer to most questions is already there.
- Reply to both the mailing list and the author or the post, using
  ``Reply to all''.
- Sign your post with your name and affiliation.
- Choose a meaningful subject. Do not start a new thread by making
      a	"reply" to an existing message: it will confuse the ordering of 
      messages into threads that most mailers can do. In particular, do
      not use "Reply" to a Digest!!!
- Be short: no need to send 128 copies of the same error message just
  because this is what came out of your 128-processor run. No need to
  send the entire compilation log for a single error appearing at the end.
- Do not post large attachments: post a link to a place where the
  attachment(s) can be downloaded from, such as e.g. DropBox, GoogleDocs, 
  or one of the various web temporary storage spaces.
- Avoid excessive or irrelevant quoting of previous messages. Your
  message must be immediately visible and easily readable, not hidden
  into a sea of quoted text.
- Remember that even experts cannot guess where a problem lies in
  the absence of sufficient information. One piece of information that
  must always be provided is the version number of QUANTUM ESPRESSO.
- Remember that the mailing list is a voluntary endeavor: nobody is
  entitled to an answer, even less to an immediate answer.
- Finally, please note that the mailing list is not a replacement
  for your own work, nor is it a replacement for your thesis director's
  work.
