Asunto: [Exim] What this mail list is for
Uh - Phil - who died and made you God? Although there is good documentation on Exim - it's not at all perfect or
covers everything and is often hard for new users to follow. We Exim users use terms that are not familiar to
Sendmail users and often - although the information is there - it's difficult for a lot of people to find it or
recognize it. So what seems like a stupid question to you might be something that someone else needs help with.

If you don't like someone's question - then ignore it. But I don't think it's your place to discourage people from
seeking help.
