As long as we're overdiscussing things... :) I'd rather see them
posted individually.  Those of us with threaded mailers find it very
very easy to spot lonely questions that have not yet been replied to.
If a single mail has many questions in it, you need to read all the
messages in the whole thread carefully to notices that of the 15
replies nobody responded to question 8.
