How about, you just reply and the last message contains the text [SOLVED],
not in the title, but in the body.
That way if you wanted to search for solved on the google group its
possible, however it does not break gmail.

Also, I think that if a topic has been solved, if it is lengthy at all, such
as the solution was found after several conversations, then the solution
should be posted by the original author as well.

Making it easy for us to add these to the wiki, like freeze suggested,
promoting them to a knowledge base.

I plan to start adding some of the groups questions on the wiki when the
wiki is ready.
