Greetings to all
note re Mahnung.
A Mahnung is what one receives anytime something is overdue. Typically it will
be a payment of a bill that you forgot. A polite letter comes entitled "First
Mahnung". Typically there is no penalty imposed at this stage. The second
Mahnung and beyond gets messy - nobody wants to go there in Switzerland!!
In the case of our library I receive the Mahnung by email telling me it is
overdue and informing me how much I owe in a fine.
I seem to recall that in the English library system it was called an overdue
notice.

Martin
