Agreed, I want the mailing list to come to me, not
have to go to it. If all of the questions were on a
forum, I'd probably never answer any questions. Forums
make things easy to miss.

If you are receiving too many messages, change your
mailman preferences to receive them in digest mode,
which means you get one big email every day containing
all of that days messages.

I have to admit though, we could do without a lot of
the tail end of thread discussion that disappears way
off the original point. I've gone in the last 6 months
from reading every mail on the list to reading the new
threads and deleting the rest when they go past the
solution into 'well I think this' territory.

Just my grumpy 2 pence.
