Markus has an overly active imagination about what constitutes a flame
but what he is alluding to is that this mailing list is not designed to
handle beginner shell questions or questions about how you should use
your email client.  For those type of discussions you should seek other
forums since the discussions are "O"ff "T"opic here.

For shell questions you can go here:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.unix.shell/

google could probably find other places also.

I don't know about gmail but it does have its own help system so that's
probably where you should start.
