Yes, it did.  However, if we just spoon-fed the answers every time someone
asked a FAQ, that would encourage entirely the wrong behaviour from new
members of the mailing list.

It would have taken even less time for you to find the answer in the archives
than to post your question to the list and wait for answers.

Basically anything which is not easily answered by looking at the FAQ included
in the source, the FAQ on Dan's website, the www.qmail.org website, or "Life
with qmail".  If it's not in any of those, it's an advanced topic, and would
almost certainly benefit from discussion with the various members of this
list, all of whom bring different points of view to the table.
