Of course its reasonable, in fact, why don't we move the lower volume ON-topic security discussions to a different list? Or put [ON] in the subject line? We can then use the debian-security list for politics, religion, poetry and any other [OT] posts we like without having to bother with all the [ON] topic stuff - hoorah. Hey - why bother with topic guidelines at all? This is where all the folks we want to spam are - and lot's of them have to subscribe for work, so they cant get away! He he he! > It's not a major problem to anyone here to filter an email if they don't > want to see off topic messages. Yeah - I only check my email from a few places - 4 PCs at work, 3 at home, a couple of laptops from a pool of about 20 company laptops and of course the webmail interface. Did I mention that the clients are variants of Outlook and Outlook Express and that the filtering doesn't work reliably? Oh and filtering rules that follow non-roaming profiles? I wish. Why don't the [OT] proponents set up a Yahoo! group and publish the URL? Then you can flame each others religions, politicians and poetry without clogging my already full inboxes. please? * see Debian span definitions re politics
