As I have voiced in the beginners-workers group, we all have to
remember that the beginners lists are set up exactly the same way as
the 100+ other Perl lists on perl.org. We will not be helping
anybody, especially the beginners that want to explore further, by
changing the way these lists work. The beginners-workers folks have
decided that the best solution is education. We are going to be
documenting how to filter @perl.org mailing lists for as many MUAs as
we can get our hands on. Please, if you feel like doing this, send
your documentation to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Amen. It is finished. :)
