Very much agreed!! The Sun managers list very much adopts the idea of a
summary to all problems being posted back to the list. This not only helps
everyone else with the same problem, but cuts down on the same questions
being sent to the list time and again. It also means that I don't have to
start digging out the original posters address to find the solution - I just
wait and it appears on the list. This 'policy' (?) is endorsed by the sun list
manager(s) and is highlighted in the FAQ and initial list welcome message
sent to new subscribers.
