I don't think it's ironic, just excusably off-topic. But it's true, and it needed to be said sometime. I've considered unsubscribing a number of times, myself, but I'm not quite to that point yet. However, when my 550-600 messages per day finally gets to be too much, which list will fall off first? That's right, the one with 50-75 messages per day, seemingly a third of which are social in nature, or questions about vim or other software that is not mutt. Indicating that a problem exists hardly comprises noise in itself. I expect this will be my only complaint on the subject, but I've long felt that the issue deserved a little attention. -- -D.
