  I agree with Chester: If someone is going to start thinking the grass is
greener, this list isn't going to make much difference.  :)

  You need to make use of mail filters and kill files.  I've got a separate
folder for gnhlug@zk3 and gnhlug-org@codemeta, and also the capability of
killing a thread if I so wish.  What mail reader are you using?  Mail filters
are usually pretty easy to setup.

  Well, of course favorable votes are going to find the posts useful;
otherwise, they would be opposed.  :)

  FWIW, I don't mind the occasional job posting.  If we start getting several
per week on a regular basis, then, yes, we should look into something fancier.
But four messages a month isn't that big a deal, IMNSHO.  :)
