	Well first you may get more answers if you turn of HTML. Most of 
us will automatically delete messages that have it, because they're 
unreadable to us.

	Most likely that it's been answered in the manual, the handbook, 
Greg's Book, or in the mailing list archive. AND it's been probally been 
answered to death. Instead of giving the standard RTFM, some of us delete 
the message, we do not have time/inclination to read every single message 
we get (especially when we get 1000+/day) 
	If a person reads the documentation, and still dosen't understand 
how to fix the problem, they're far more likely to get help. We're 
willing to help, but only if one helps themself.
