Please make your subject line decriptive and relevant (was "RE: 2 questions")

[Pete Peters]

Paulo,

I think John meant that you should use a subject line that makes sense. "2
questions" could be anything. When you announce a lecture do you say "I'm
giving a lecture," or do you say "I'm giving a lecture on the OSI Network
Model?"

I know that I do *NOT* have time to read every single post, so a descriptive
and relevant subject line allows me to skip/delete those posts that do not
interest me. It also assists people searching the archives for answers.

Regards,

Pete

Thanks, they were very helpful, I just tried them and they are
exactly what I was looking for.

Err..I did fill in the subject, mind you. And anyway, why the need to shout?
