Has anyone here ever considered spiltting the ML in half for this kind of "spam"? I enjoy lurking here but these get old fast.
See this entry in the mailing list FAQ: http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/tools/maillist/faq.php#06
Here's what it says:
It's not possible for the mailing lists to contain exactly what you find interesting. If we are to share information freely, all subscribers must be prepared to cope with a certain amount of traffic they find boring or useless.
Sometimes it becomes a clear problem, with one subject generating so much traffic that it becomes a burden on a more general mailing list. In those cases, a new mailing list can be created to make it possible for only those who are interested to receive the information. However, there is a practical limit.
