Thanks Matt for clarifying my point, and Pete for considering this. Oddly enough, I would likely subscribe to BOTH lists, but the seperation would allow me to filter, target and respond to more 'important' emails notices, and review discussions *IF* and/or when I have time. As an Email/Network Admin and IT Manager, I receive hundreds of emails per day, and so I must be able to automatically prioritize those messages via filters as they arrive so I can focus on "Critical" information. Thanks again for your consideration!

Point taken. This seems to be a popular idea so I will look into it. This list, however, will remain "chatty". The "announcements only" list will only be used for that purpose. I would hate to see the discussions on this list "quieted". Thanks, _M This E-Mail came from the Message Sniffer mailing list.
