I suppose that there are several Linux-IL subscribers who are NOT
interested in job offers or in advertisements.
(Personally, I am interested in job offers but not in advertisements.)

This is not an issue of opening a separate list for newbie questions (this
does not work).

So, I suggest that Linux-IL be split into three lists:
- Linux-IL, for everything else.
- Linux-IL-jobs, for job offers.  Only those who want to see job offers
  will be subscribed to it.
- Linux-IL-ads, for Linux related advertisements.

By the way, I don't consider the advertisement about firewall for Linux to
be spam, because the sender made the effort to target it.  But if
Linux-IL-ads will be opened and the Linux-IL charter will be modified to
direct advertisers to Linux-IL-ads - then the advertisement would have
been a spam.
