Concurring with Alan...and pointing out that most email clients have excellent filter mechanisms built in, so one doesn't even need to exercise a finger to press "delete." I have set a number of filters for rejection of, e.g. KX3, AGC, Microphone, Orders, Contests, Knobs. What I find to be especially helpful or interesting are hardware bug reports or difficulties for K2 and K3, transverters, etc. This tailors my incoming Elecraft traffic according to my personal interests, and since the filters are so easy to set up, one can relax them once the barrage of "me-too" contributions to a thread dies down.
