[snip] So the summary of my proposal is as follows: 1.) An issue has been identified with the list whereby improper archival will likely lead to repeat questions and unnecessary traffic to the list. 2.) I propose that we discontinue the act of subject modification to indicate a change in status of the issue (SOLVED, ALSO, ANOTHER PROBLEM, etc.) unless a completely different problem is reached or question is asked. This will allow a step-by-step document (of sorts) to be created and made "searchable" on the web. [/snip] This has been the expected behavior (adding [SOLVED]) for a long time though it does not occur as often as it should. It has been in the NEWBIE GUIDE for a long time and has been a de-facto standard on IT or computer related mailing lists like this for years.
