Incidentally, one reason that people might be inclined to send mail rather
than post is that often, when posting, you get no acknowledgement that the
person asking the question found your solution helpful or not.  I can't 
tell you how often I've replied to NetNews questions, but haven't gotten
any sort of reply.

As a courtesy, if a question that you ask is answered on NetNews, please
acknowledge the posting.  Maybe even say thanks.
