Hi Wayne, (I wanted to answer you directly but the mail came back, don't know why) I have several points that you really should work on if you expect anyone to answer to your mails in future. First, you should check the destination of your messages. I got at least three of your messages addressed only for me, you obviously wanted to send them to the list but they only reached me. So I didn't answer because the mailing list should be an open and searchable discussion platform and I didn't want to forward your message to the list or something like that. Please check that carefully in future.
The next thing is that everyone must have the feeling that you completely ignore replies. This link here should have been an alert for you: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/mailing-list-faq/etiquette.html This was posted as reply to one of your mails. One thing explained there is to not cite the original mail after the own reply, instead you should cite the original issue at the beginning or in parts directly before the parts of the answer. See below: >> How to do foo bar? Just like that. You see? The same thing about your footnotes*. Another thing is the HTML I received from your adress two times -- HTML has neither benefit nor a good reputation in mailing lists. I delete HTML mails without reading it in most cases. And, but that's maybe more a personal thing, I find it very unfriendly to ask in the subject and write in the body something like "(see subject)" -- we take the time to read your message, in respect to that you also should take the time to ask a complete question. Please don't misunderstand this message -- I don't want to blame you, I want to help you and make sure that you get answers to your questions in future. Regards, Philipp * like this one here. They don't help you, they don't explain anything, they don't help me reading the message, they have absolutely no benefit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
