The bandwidth has already been wasted.
As Paul William mentioned above, you can quite easily filter messages at the POP3 server thus saving your bandwidth. Yes, this is a linux mailing list, but it is also a community of people who are interested in technology. Are you saying that a post offering free or outlandishly cheap hardware *which could be used for running linux* does not interest you at all and is a PITA for wasting your bandwidth? I beg to differ. hads -- This life is a test. It is only a test. Had this been an actual life, you would have received further instructions as to what to do and where to go.
