Honestly I do not care what so ever. Nobody should bother people with their
emails - especially since most of us take a lot of care to not miss very
important work emails among the hundreds, if not even thousands of emails
that we receive every day (I personally received 250 emails only today, and
it's just the beginning of the NA timezone. By the time I wake up tomorrow
it sure will be 400 or more.) Within this amount of emails even with
complex filters in place, a responsible engineer will read through the
subject lines of every email at least in the relevant mailing lists. Email
like this one, with some sneaky bcc being added every 4th email so that the
thread keeps reappearing even after it's dismissed, gets ignored by that
complex system of filters, because the filter doesn't actually see why did
I receive this email. As such it lands in my HIGH PRIORITY inbox. This
freaks me out. Please stop.

If you have issues with sending emails to anything, contact administrators.
This is not a solution. If anything you will get your own email flagged as
spam by large number of people, which will lead exactly to what you're
trying to prevent/circumvent, just worse.
