I've forgotten one more important guideline... plus this is just proof that I follow my own. :p 8. Make sure the subject of your message is directly related to the message. ABSOLUTELY no blank subjects, and no subjects that consist of "Hello!" or "FreeBSD Problem". Provide a concise description of the problem. In addition, replies should contain the subject of the original message, with "Re: " prepended. This allows mail clients like mutt to sort the message according to the thread it belongs to, even if the In-Reply-To header is missing. If the reader would benefit from an enhanced subject, please include the original subject before the additional text, with some type of separator.
