I filter and apply a label using a rule to match "scientific-linux-us...@fnal.gov OR scientific-linux-users@listserv.fnal.gov" in the "To" field. The "To" field catches cc's to those email addresses, as in your email.

Re: forum for Scientific Linux users
The "spyware" site, cdn.insights.gravity.com, is at an alias of a1093.g.akamai.net. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akamai_Technologies. I could be wrong, but I'll bet it's not really spyware, but is a legitimate attempt to speed up the slow loading about which Konstantin complained.

Changing the domain is, and has been under consideration. Remember, the forum is basically just a Q and A session relating to desktop/workstation users' problems, primarily. This is the official channel for announcements and what-not, so i don't see that _any_ community splitting is going on whatsoever. Expansion, yes. Problems could be duplicated, yes...but I think if I started forwarding forum posts here, there would be quite a stir over it. Clint: Life has no guarantees; especially in the linux community :)

Re: forum for Scientific Linux users
So how do those who prefer mail lists see the material posted on the forum? If that material isn't automatically forwarded to the appropriate mail list, a large portion of the community will be unaware of important topics. It would seem that the forum would be much the poorer without their contributions.

I honestly prefer mailing lists or NNTP as forums each require a different place to go to see if there are updates, or else there's constant getting an e-mail notice, which doesn't actually let you know what was posted so then you have to click through, and log in to post a reply.
