I think the lazy issue is common one for all mailing list. I'm myself quite new to struts and I had many questions in the begining. Even with the ducumentation effort on the Struts project, I found some difficulties to find the solutions quickly.
In those curcumstance, some people find more easy to sent help email on the list instead of trying to understand their pb by themself. And if the only response they can receive from users mailing-list is a http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
I don't think that we achieve the gaol of such mailing-list.
By the way, this activity show that more and more people are using Struts and that's a great news for an open source project.
Maybe a warning notice on the mail subscrubtion confiration could reduce lazy requests...

Is it my imagination or are the number of downright lazy requests to this list getting worse?
If the only replies any lazy questions ever got was http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html then maybe people would get the point. Has anyone got any other ideas about how we can reduce the amount of lazy and totally off-topic posts to the list?
