responding to them can easily take quite a lot of time away from your real work

After writing a book about an open-source project, I get a lot of questions by e-mail. My usual answer is "Ask the mailing list."

This is much better for everyone -- the answer becomes google-able, and they can draw from the experience of the entire community, not just me.

Yes, I think the answer to the "too much mails" problem is opening a mailing list or forum. It works for medium to big projects, but for small ones I'm not sure it would be enough.
