I value the the variety of the list, but I also experience the overload
problem of which Henry complained. The way that I cope is to delete a lot
of messages unread, based on the subject line. It takes about a minute to
do this. I do not trust automatic filtering sufficiently to allow it to
delete messages.
Use precise subject lines and change them when the topic changes or
diverges. It makes everyone's life easier.
