And? You got born as a mailinglist expert super pro?

Sorry, this isn't ment as offensive as it might look, but I don't like this 
anti-newbie posts.

I can remember the times when I started reading and posting to technical 
mailinglists and newsgroups some years ago, and it was a pain in the a** 
for me, especially the newsgroups. One "wrong" post and 1.000 answers with 
"man this" and "man that" and "learn to quote" and things like "hey n00b, 
ask google for such silly questions!" ... all, because I asked my 
questions in a wrong manner. But: where should I have learned it, if not 
on the list itself?

Again, sorry if my first line was to rude, but I really can feel with those 
always-unlucky mailinglist newbies...

Greets, Matthias

maybe you should try some of this.
