I'd like this PG lists. I know, my english is very ugly because it isn't
my native language. But PG is a really great Open Source Project and it
has a really large and userfriendly communitity. And, of course, i can
learn more about english and PG and i wish to help others if i can.

Right. There are other hints, for instance all about top-posting style.

If i search the archive and read answers and i see (i read normally
from top to bottom) first the answer and later the question, so this is
hard to understand. The rules for mailing lists etiquette are useful and
i wish, more people would follow this rules.
