Actually I figure when someone starts addressing me as "Mr." they are about to insult me but wish to pretend civility while doing so. I have certainly asked my fair share of questions on this list, many of them handled by the FAQ or the docs eventually, and cannot recall EVER receiving an abusive answer. I don't believe that I have ever been told to RTFM without being given the chapter or keywords with which to search. (And I an sure that I have never been told literally to RTFM in a rude manner.) For that matter, as long as a reference, chapter, or other way to find the info is offered, RTFM is perfectly fine when answering me. This list is NOT abusive -- there may occasionally be an idiot poster, or an idiotic post, but those are trivial to ignore: DELETE And there are plenty of kind people to actually answer questions and offer help. -- Herb Martin -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
