Am I the only one that agonizes over subject line wording and content long after having finished writing the e-mail itself?

Especially when you're sending to a diverse group of recipients. You've got to make sure that everyone grasps the gist of the mail no matter their perspective or role.

On a related note, I've seen some just blindingly awful post titles in Seekers of Perl Wisdom. I'm thinking that writing those uses a similar set of rules =P

Composing good subject lines is an art, imo.

Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!

Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.

Please read these before you post! —

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:

Outside of code tags, you may need to use entities for some characters:
