Basically, unless the subject IS "daily digest..." - leave it the same if you
are replying to a message.
If you are sending a new message on a new subject, and so not a reply, then by all means
use a meaningful subject and others will reply with the same subject.
I believe russ has just sent a reply regarding your question :)
also, send mail to staffslug@ rather than a personal email address unless someone asks
otherwise (i.e. Off record mails)
sorry for being a little pedantic about these things! I dont wish to be a pain! :p

So, if I'm responding to the daily digest I keep the subject the same. If I'm
responding to any other email quoted in the daily digest email then I am to change the
subject line to something more meaningful. Did I understand correctly? As an aside, do you
know if Lucid and SUSE are going to be demo'd?
Cheers
Gary.

Gary,
this instruction is only relevant when replying to a daily digest email. If you
are just replying to standard mails on the list then the subject should remain
intact unless you wish to start a new discussion.
Hope this clarifies :)

Hi Adam
Thanks for your reply. I was under the impression that I was to change the
subject line as per the following instruction: "When replying, please edit your
Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Staffslug digest..."
Your advice seems to contradict this. I'm not the sharpest tool in the box so
maybe I misunderstood. Can you explain when I keep it the same and when I'm
supposed to change it please to prevent me from doing this again? Regards Gary --
