Hi all,

- Isn't it possible to choose a meaningfull subject? If there are two 
threads with the subject "no subject" you never know which one it is. 
Don't choose subjects like "very urgent", "question" or "help!!" but one 
which says something about the problem like "How to generate PDF" or 
"How to use \tableofcontents"

- Send your mail in plain text not in HTML

- Qoute like described here: http://pub.tsn.dk/how-to-quote.php

That are just some advices for better mailing list reading.

Comments are welcome. (maybe we should put toghether a "How to write 
mails to mailing lists"-Manual)

cheers
   Sorin
