You are not being subjected to so much email.  You chose to subscribe to 
this list knowing full well what that would mean and I'm sure you know 
how to unsubscribe.  There's a digest if you can't handle it, or filter 
your email to an appropriate box.  I delete threads whose subject lines 
don't interest me, it's really not that hard.

And what is this "I won't read any email from those who do not have 
'mysql.com' in their email addresses"?  That seems mighty entitled.  If 
you want customer support, I think MySQL AB will be happy to provide it, 
go to https://order.mysql.com/ .  Please note that, although they have 
provided the documentation, mailing list, archives, and the software 
itself for FREE, this is something that you can pay for.

You know, your suggestions are actually helpful, but the tone with which 
you deliver them invalidates you as a constructive critic.  I think they 
call that sort of person a troll.
