Right now, the onap-discuss mailing list has 5 topics [1]:
admin
development
infrastructure
installation
users

People mailing the onap-discuss would need to create subject lines that
can be filtered, as we do OpenStack, OPNFV, and many other Open Source
communities [2].
ONAP examples:
[onap-discuss][admin]
[onap-discuss][development]
[onap-discuss][installation]
[onap-discuss][infrastructure]
[onap-discuss][users]

Also, the topic feature of mailman needs to be configured for individual
projects, ie:
demo
dcae
mso

Examples of project-specific subject lines:
[onap-discuss][demo]
[onap-discuss][dcae]
[onap-discuss][mso]

Users can then subscribe to specific filters as we all choosing to
receive emails that do not match a filter.

Andy Grimberg - do you where I create a ticket to have projects added to
the onap-discuss top categories?
