Sorry if my sentence felt offensive. I think the purpose of the newbies mailing list is also for newbies to *learn* their way around, and explaining that posting a question on the right mailing list is I think important. I have no problem with "newbies" doing mistakes, otherwise I wouldn't be subscribed on this list and I wouldn't reply to questions. So, really, my statement was really for information, but I understand that my wording might have been understood differently. Apologies if that was the case.
