Hi --

I personally find it annoying to see the entire text of a config file in
the posts to this list, distribution comments included.

People: when you feel the need to send your config file, *please* be
encouraged to use something like...

cat /etc/exim/configure | egrep -v '(^#|^$)' > /tmp/configure

...that way, we get the point without having to scroll through digests.
I feel it's even more annoying when responders don't trim their messages
and then proceed to include the whole quoted config file again.

If you want to add your own comments appropriate for the post, just use
a single space before your # sign and the above egrep won't skip it.

Otherwise, great list! I get lots of valuable information from here,
and it's great to see so many folks willing to help out the newbies. :)
