This is not feasable with mailing lists. Even if it was, I'm not sure any list oriented in helping users would allow for it's use, since it would encourage people to be read-only users[1]. If everybody used that feature, you wouldn't be getting this answer. > If that is not possible, can someone recommend a "debian forum" which > provides such a feature? Debian folks tend to be somewhat opposed to duplication of effort and fracturing of the community. This is your "debian forum."
