Its too bad, discussions of this size really warrant a more organized
message system, like NNTP... but I have no idea if anyone at Apache is
looking into this, or already has it implemented. NTTP is much easier
to manage wrt, sub contexts as well as reduces general net traffic, as
every single message is not duplicated to each subscribers mail box.

Different issue Alan.
What I'm after are sub-lists. ie)
geronimo-dev mail list then:
[general] or [spec] etc.
At Jakarta Commons we have slowly managed to get the Developer list to
abide by this, though no the User list 100% of the time. Although I
[and
someone else] suggested such a thing for Geronimo, the sheer number of
people here means it's unlikely it'll manage to learn to abide by
informal
rules [my opinion from the Commons community].
Even if it is, the only way to make it adhere is to define a solid set
of
sub-contexts and publish these [wiki, whereever]. Or to push off
separate
lists [which damages the development of the community, but so does too
much noise].
For your problem, have you tried filtering on a header? That's the
preferred way. However I often find myself forgetting and filtering on
the
Reply-To.

I requested a similar thing in that I asked for this discussion to be
labeled [geronimo-dev] so that I can spot it from the tons of junk
emails
that are sent to me and the response that I basically got was that
it's too
bad the my emailer sucks so bad.

I'm not sure if others are finding this too, but I'm
definitely looking forward to a time when the mail list gets
nice and organised about either having multiple lists or
having an obvious separation of concepts with good use of
[xxx] markers.
I'm used to getting a lot of mail list traffic into my inbox,
and yet I'm starting to treat the list as a lot of white-noise.
Any need for improvements, or am I just being a wimp?
