Seriously, a question with detailed information and showing you did your best to solve your problem is getting a better answer then one showing you didn't do a thing.
Remember.. it's mostly your problem and you search for help from other admins who don't get any payment.
Nobody should feel offended if the answer is just a link to the information you're looking for.
Read the following information. It's written by a guy who codes on Linux.. but this information is also interesting for others.

I think I saw it in another reply too.

I too have enjoyed this list and have learned a lot from it but only after deleting the several hundred posts that are absolute drivel (kind of like the last 10 or so). I have only been subscribed for a little over a month and I am absolutely overwhelmed by the sheer number of posts that I simply have to ignore before I see one that actually answers a question. Its almost as bad as spam to be quite honest. Many of you seem to think that every answer has been answered and therefore every single person within a few hundred yards of an Exchange Server should already know that answer. You also seem to assume that every person subscribed to this list eats, breathes and farts Exchange Server - if it didn't sound like such a boring existence I would love that - unfortunately I also have to administer an entire network of other servers, switches, routers, firewalls, etc. I spend a great deal of time with TechNet and the Knowledgebase as well as their equivalents from other companies. I also read a lot of very thick (and very droll) books but quite often, I need to know something that isn't necessarily in a book or is explained in very limited or in poor detail by the vendor responsible. That is when I turn to these lists and hope to learn something from those of you who in the know and who are gracious enough to spend your time answering questions. I find it very unfortunate that some of you are so negative and hostile toward some of the questions posted here. If it is such a bother, then just stop - you can very easily unsubscribe and go on about your lives without having to worry about the rest of us. We will muddle through. I wish this post could have had some meaningful question that couldn't be answered by the great and powerful google.com or that it had contained an answer as worthy but I'm really getting tired of the bickering - please stop.
SNIPPING a low of stuff.
