That was a very nice message. I haven't been on the list for long, but I
found that people on this list is in general very helpful and friendly.
Let us all try to keep it this way.
I am sure we all appreciate your suggestions. I just want to make a few
comments here and there so that new user will really get the point. Thanks.

Maybe since the question was *beyond* basic photography, not many people
had any answer, suggestion, or even understanding of the question.

I don't think many photographers, including professionals, know about how
to fold a bellows!
> * Use subject lines that are meaningful.
Some people don't realize the importance of this. If one uses subject
like "I Need Help!!!" After a few messages, the other readers can only
read the subject and maybe a reply like "try raising the temperature of
the developer." And items like these are simply confusing, and most
people would just delete them.
Well, I first thought I would comment much, and later found that your
list was pretty self-explanatory. Thanks again for the suggestions!
