That's what I have been trying to say - the only thing that I
disagree with is keeping .help.  IMHO, spamcop ng is sufficient for
those who prefer ngs to ask help questions in.  Since ng people are
probably a different breed than web forum people, the answers found
in either place will probably suit that place better.  Hopefully,
major changes would be posted in both places by admin.

The .mail people have a different battle to fight than spamcop help
issues.
