The Philharmonic Society of Selangor communicates with its members through:
this website;
our blog at selangorphil.blogspot.com;
an e-group set up in YahooGroups (the e-mail address on your membership application/renewal form, will be entered into the said e-group)
It’s essential that you provide us with your e-mail address and check your e-mail regularly, be it from home, work, school, or a cybercafe. Please let us know immediately if you have any problems accessing the e-group or receiving e-mails from the e-group.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU INFORM YOUR SECTION REPRESENTATIVE, OR ANY OF THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS, OF ANY CHANGES IN YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS.
All members will receive the Society's newsletter, The Phil News, through their email. A copy of the newsletter will also be posted on this website. [Less trees are killed this way, and you can access it from anywhere in the world!]
The e-group is are for communications between members of the Phil - so do make good use of it! :-) However, do be reminded of a few rules to be observed. Remember, you will be addressing a very large group of people every time you post a message!
- Please do not forward chain letters, virus warnings, etc. to the e-group.
- While occasional spurts of jokes and inspirational thoughts are certainly welcome, do try wherever possible to stay on topics which are relevant to the members of the e-group.
- Where appropriate, do consider the option of communicating with members directly, by sending messages directly to them, and not to the entire e-group. This situation may arise, for example, if you wish to pursue a topic that is no longer of interest to everyone, or that should be discussed in private.
- When replying to a posted message, please delete the old message. If you need parts of the old message in your reply, then keep those, but delete the rest.
- If you are forwarding a message, please delete the old message headers (especially if they are very long!). You may also wish to delete references to the original sender's e-mail address, if you feel that the original sender may not want his e-mail address to be broadcast to numerous recipients, who may, in turn, inadvertently broadcast the same to further recipients!
- Be courteous. Please refrain from making personal remarks on the e-group.
- Remember, attachments in e-mails will be filtered out by the system. If you send an e-mail with an attachment, the e-group members will receive your e-mail, but without the attachment. You may however make use of the file-sharing and photo-sharing facilities on the e-group.................................................................................
