Larry, what was wrong with my mails? Sorry, if..., but...?
I'm reading the mailing list since a long time and thought I would 
follow these guidelines you just mentioned.

What especially do you miss:
- was checking the FAQ
- was checking the archive
- was specific, also quoting a very specific thread from the archive 
including an URL
- asked whether to send cygcheck - Randall said no.
- would look into sources if I would know C (actually sometimes I tried 
patching in the dark)
- did not complain that there is a bug which must be fixed
- did not send personal email
- used an instructive subject line
- confined my mail to one problem
- avoided personal detail
...

Please be specific to me, too, tell me what I did wrong and I swear to 
pick it up for the future.

Frank-Michael
