Subject:      proposed posting title formats

List Members,

Here's a suggestion that may make keyword searching of the archives more productive in the future. What I'm proposing is that for common message types, that there be a standard subject line format. for example, for reports on repair procedures, have a standard subject line heading of, 'repair procedure: <description>', or for a list member's report about service recieved at a dealer or other shop, 'shop report: <description>'. Something along these lines may not only make archive searches more productive, but also help people screen their e-mail.

Other standard messages could include: 'problem diagnosis, help: <whatever your problem is>' 'discussion: <blah, blah, blah>' etc., etc., etc.

if this is a waste of time, just flame me.....

later, porter_fred%pax9@mr.nawcad.navy.mil relax and spin 87 syncro
