In one word? No! <g> In more words, filters do not work on list mail (mine
don't). Digest readers can't filter stuff or delete OT posts. All the OT
posts clog up the archives (including stuff like, sorry, me too, etc). You
can post "related" posts to the Annexe. You can always ask permission BEFORE
posting.
