Any email sent to a list is "bulk". And I didn't, in any way, solicit this Emma Watson bs, nor your pleas for funding or support. The very least you could do, out of common courtesy (I really hope you know what that is) is mark your email as offtopic, you know, like everyone in every other LUG does, with the [OT] marker in the subject? This way I, and anyone else not interested in anything but the technology this list is about, can filter it out, and let you keep spamming those who are for some reason interested. > > 2.
