At your local in-person Mopar Club meeting people speak up and address one another by name, then discuss some Mopar topic. Lots of give and take. Same idea in a Mail List: addressing someone in the mail by name and then going on with discussion about some Mopar related subject represents discussion that a lot of people will benefit from. The Mopar related subject matter in the message text is something that everyone can follow along with and trumps the salutation. For example: Bob posts a message: "What's the gap to adjust my Poly 318 valve?" Ted replies: "Bob, I just adjusted the valves on my Poly 318. Here's what I did....." This is a valid Mail List message. A lot of people on the Mail List Clubhouse would like to read how Bob adjusted those valves. Such information would help them when they had to do the job. But what if Ted replied, "Bob, meet me at the Dodge dealer at the corner of 4th and Smith at 3PM and I'll show you how to adjust the valves?" This is an example of a private mail that should have only gotten sent to Bob directly, not to everyone. Hope this clarifies the distinction between private and Mail List Clubhouse mail.

I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
