Good idea, Doris.
This will help me categorizing the posts automatically for easier
reading - which was my only concern because naturally I read all
messages in due course ;-)
Maybe we can develop a system here, or adopt any existing one.
To start with I would suggest:
FS for sale
WTB wanted to buy
OT off-topic (very sensible suggestion indeed, Doris!)
maybe more categories will follow...
