I'm Not Getting My Mail!
List Operation and Etiquette
The Gainesville Cycling Club membership email listserv is currently hosted by Simplelists.com. All GCC members with email should join if they have any interest in following club events. To subscribe, use the form below. If you are not a member of the GCC, you must first join the club. Use of GCCMail is restricted to club members; we won't put you on if your check is "in the mail."
Members who get GCCMail who have information of interest to the GCC membership can email it to GCCMail@gccfla.org.
If you do not want to subscribe, you can view the archived messages.
You can send email to the List Manager if you need special help.
It is important to remember that you have opted in to receive GCCMail, and that you can opt out at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of every GCCMail message. You cannot select which GCCMail messages to receive, its an all or nothing proposition.
To receive GCCMail, you must keep your email box open for business. When you let it get full, or don't pay your bill, your ISP will send a "bounce" message back to our list provider. When you get 30 of these on your record in a month, you are removed from the list.
You can also get a quick, one way ticket off the list by reporting a GCCMail message as SPAM (or "Report As Junk" in AOL). Doing so endangers all users of opt-in mail lists serviced by our list provider, and therefore they will remove you from the list immediately. If you do not want to receive GCCMail, please unsubscribe (DON'T mark it as SPAM).
"Big Brother" AOL may put your GCCMail in your SPAM folder unless you set your SPAM setting to "low." Of course, doing this will let more real SPAM through.
If you've been deleted, and have cleaned up your act, you can use the above form to request back on the list.

When posting a message on GCCMail, it is important to remember that you are not just talking to a small group of your friends. Imagine yourself standing at a podium in an auditorium filled to capacity with over 400 persons. Then compose your message as if you were delivering it as a short speech or announcement to that group. Make sure that what you have to say is of sufficient import to require each of these persons to deal with the receipt of your message, either reading or discarding, in any case, taking their time.
Topics that we expect to see on GCCMail include announcements of rides and bicycling related events, cycling related stuff needed or for sale, and limited information about current cycling related topics (there are plenty of other venues for those who are into specific topics to get information). If you are moved to comment on another post, imagine that you are standing up in the 400 person audience and shouting your comment.
Due to the number of subscribers and the avowed purpose of the list (information), GCCMail is not a good venue for carrying on extensive discussions. What these amount to is a group of persons up on the stage in front of that auditorium of 400 persons, most of whom are there to learn information, not listen to a discussion. Discussions also generate significant traffic that has to be dealt with in often crowded in boxes.
We expect all users of GCCMail to excercise proper decorum when posting to the list. Anything that you say about another person should be something that you would not hesitate to say from that podium in the auditorium, and that you feel that you can defend if sued for libel. In general, you should avoid negative comments about individuals in GCCMail.
Do NOT forward mail from others that was sent to you personally to the list without their express permission. This is particularly true of “discussion” topics.
All posts may be screened before they are sent out. This will not always be possible, so please think twice before hitting Send. If steam is coming out of your ears as your write, put it in the Draft folder and look at it again tomorrow.
Because mail may be screened, there can be a delay between the time you send and the time it is sent to the list. Please take this into account. Rides posted in the evening for the next day will not make it in time for anyone to show up.
