I fully agree - the only way I could see to divide this list that makes any
sense would be installation/post-installation - though, again, where would
"tomcat as service" type posts go?
It is a very high volume list, but with a threaded mail reader that can be
dealt with - most (gui-based) readers allow one to order by subject, and
hence delete by subject...
The information I've learnt here has been invaluable, and certainly I find
replying to the odd "newbie" post makes up for the guilty feeling I get for
not contributing more actively to the project ;)
