The importance of Pertinent Subjects

[Chuck Yerkes <chuck@snew.com>]

So you're NOT running sendmail.  But the subject says "sendmail"
to which I suppose the question is related.

Sorry if I'm picking on marvin, but...

Guys, can we put up subject lines that are PERTINENT?
Cause when I come back from a week away and have 1200 messages,
I just delete the ones that I can't determine.  And I often
can and do help out.

I know I'm not the only one who just pares down vague list
mail when time is running tight.

One might suggest the magic of "more /etc/rc /etc/netstart" as a
starting point.  Learn your OS and how it starts things.
