This is also the explicitly stated policy of this list, and if you fail to
snip your messages appropriately, you risk getting kicked off the list.

This is one of the reasons given in the list policies, another significant
one is that many people in countries other than the USA have to pay by the
minute and/or per byte transfered on their internet connections, so
failing to "snip" your messages is costing them money (and they often are
the ones least able to afford it).

So show some consideration for the other list members or risk getting
booted from the list.
