Since the beginning of the "Ethernal September" in the openoffice.org
domain.

The amount of meta-topics on unsuscribe, unsubscribed authors, gmane,
attachments, Tofu etc becomes almost as distracting as spam,
particulary on [email protected].
Today's facebook people do not understand mailing lists.
I belong to to several mailing lists. I get messages from all those who
are subscribed and my email program sorts them into their respective
folders. I also follow a few newsgroups on Usenet using the same email
program. I followed this list via Usenet for the longest time before I
realized it was also accessible as a "mailing list." My question is,
how common is it for mailing lists to be accessible via Usenet? This
one is the only one that I use that does this. I also think this is
(partially) some of the reason for the confusion for some of the readers.
Related, of all of the mailing lists I belong to, this is the only one
where people who are NOT subscribed can send and post messages. This
makes no sense to me whatsoever.
