[Serusers] Mailing list search directly accessible from iptel.org

[Greger V. Teigre]

Hm, I have bold-faces the info on search here:
http://www.iptel.org/ser/using

I'm not sure how most beginners get to serusers, I would assume they go 
through the above page.

I think the best thing we can do is to create FAQs. You and others who 
are so kind to help out people can help yourself by adding a FAQ item 
when a question pops up that has been asked before and then just refer 
to the FAQ link.
Everybody with an iptel.org account can create a FAQ item!
