please do not hijack foreign threads!
If posting a mail with a fresh new subject to the list, do NOT use a different posting and press reply. This will cause thread hijacking - like you did. Your mail now contains misleading references to the "Re: Some problems getting started" thread.
Alexander's been sounding like a broken record for quite some time; same complaint every day or so. Is there anyway for the powers-that-be to have all subscribers read and agree to follow some sort of basic 'netiquette' when signing up?
Many newbies (and some oldies) likely don't have a clue when it comes to basic netiquette. And blasting them on the mailing list is embarassing and would be enough for me to unsubscribe if I were in their shoes. Of course, if they've read and agreed to follow basic netiquette, they can be flamed to your heart's content.
