Over in website-discuss, we've reached consensus that, for the site

You're kidding, right?  This has really helped me, at least,
deal with all of the opensolaris email.

 I wasn't kidding.

Since opensolaris-discuss is the highest traffic alias on
opensolaris.org, I think it is reasonable to make one exception if
those mailx(1) users out there feel strongly enough.  If no one
cares, then we'll switch them all over the course of tomorrow
afternoon.
Oh, of course.  One standard for us and one for everyone else.

 (There are plenty of other limited MUAs out there; sorry to single
 yours out.)

That wasn't how I meant it.

There should be one rule for all lists - no exceptions.
If it is good enough for others then it is good enough for here.
If it isn't good enough for here then it isn't good enough for others.

i.e No double standards.

Some of the other forums, namely zfs-discuss and networking-discuss,
can generate quite high levels of email traffic within a short period of
time.

If/when it becomes trivial to subscribe a different alias to each
forum (to aid IMAP mailbox delivery) in opensolaris.org,
this would be fine.

 It's standard Mailman--can you not do that today?

I think you missed the word "trivial" or your idea of "trivial" is
a lot more complex than what mine is.

By trivial I mean the website lets me enter in X+opensolaris-discuss
as the email address to subscribe to the list and in X's IMAP view, a
new folder opensolaris-discuss gets created/populated with email for
it.

That's the level of difficulting I'm looking for here.

Darren
