Hi group,
I would like to raise my voice against the use of overly long subject lines
that run out of space on the line provided.
what is 'overly long' and what space are you talking about?
Complete sentences are not necessary. A few, well chosen words should
suffice and spare the user the nuisance of opening mail that ultimately is
of no value to him.
so you are opening mails if the subject is a sentence no matter what the
sentence is telling you?
I prefer as much info as possible myself. Sometimes the subject can be
one thing but because there is little info in it, it turns out to be
something else. Of course, a error message can be really nice too.
It's good if you are searching for the error you are having. I would
rather have a long one than a short one with not enough info to know
whether I can help or not. Of course, the one for this is short but
doesn't mention anything about others being to long. I was hoping to
see someone suggesting that people should have better than "need help"
or something. Maybe it should have been " can we have shorter subject
lines please" or something like that. Of course, that means it is
longer. LOL
I also wish the forum subject lines could be longer and have a special
spot for "solved" as well. That is their problem tho.
