A Pet Peeve about posting on the lists



<SOAPBOX>
If you wish to start a new thread on the list, 
PLEASE send a message to debian-user@lists.debian.org.
DO NOT just reply to any old message in your mailbox.
If you do that, then the threading gets messed up,
and it doesn't display right in the archives, or
in threaded mail clients like mutt.

For a prime example, look at,
"sendmail virtual hosting" right in the middle
of "STABLE graphical FTP client".
Also, "Partition table change", right in the middle
of "i740 video card drivers".
