What right way to pose question then?

A short, yet descriptive *subject*, with the details in the *body* of
the post.  Arjen's comment was referring to your use of the subject line
to pose the question itself and the using the body for (nearly) nothing.

I prefer question in subject then easier to see.

Generally, that's probably fine, but...

Many news readers don't provide a good mechanism to read overly-long
subject lines.  Some resort to displaying long subjects as a "tool-tip"
(which isn't ideal).  Still, others may simply truncate the subject line
if it's longer than expected.

Just something to keep in mind.
