There are times when system-specific stuff needs to be forwarded up, but questions like ``how do I set up PPP? I'm running -CURRENT'' belong in -questions. Now, if it was a known, well-announced bug then the people deserve the tongue lashing. Don't forget that -quesitons is our first line of support, and we'd prefer that people use the front door unless the question obviously applies elsewhere. I don't mind sorting mail. In Pine, I have a [b]ounce command that I can use to throw mail to the correct list. Other mailers mayhave it as `redirect', but it's a handy command nonetheless.
