FAQs are a great source of information, but sometimes the subject matter is
too vast to be contained in a single FAQ.  How many Qs would be sufficient
to cover the subject matter in this list alone??

I think it was Len that suggested the idea of Sub-Forums, where questions
could be asked in an environment with acknowlegded experts in the subject
matter and a general knowledge of other Sub-Forums in which to direct
off-topic questions.  Maybe these could be hosted on several machines (1 per
topic/sub-forum) to spread the machine workload around.

In addition, there are some topics that I would rather get a digest of,
because I'm not having a problem in that area, but I don't want to miss
anything juicy (sp?).  Other topics I want to see all of the details (and
hopefully contribute to when I learn enough myself).

I can think of a few sub-forums to start with:
Web Messaging
DNS
Security
Lists
Spam
Newbies (or "I just installed/inherited IMail and I don't know where to go
from here.")

Granted that should be done, and 'How To Ask Questions The Smart Way'
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
should be required reading before submitting questions to this list.

However I do believe a well written FAQ does have its merits.
