while at the topic of "well-behaving on mailing lists"... reading the
From: and Subject:, I expected to be enlightened about buffer tuning
issues, high-performance SSH, and so on.

Instead I read another sermon about use of mail clients, proper
formatting, and so on - which I can agree to, but which I'm not 
interested in reading.

Would you, being so wisened in the use of e-mail and human communication,
please bother to change the Subject: line accordingly, then?

thanks,
