Pete,
Being guilty of being 'chatty' myself, I still second this idea. I would much prefer to pick through an occasional message dealling with global announcements regarding the service than picking through both discussions as well as announcements. I'm not always up to date on this list and others that I follow and I probably will pay less attention to them over time as I get buried in other things as many of us do.
Please consider a separate announcement-only list for this purpose.
Alternatively, having both mixed will both overwhelm users not interested in the more general discussion and it may also cause those of us that are more 'chatty' to quiet down which stifles the discussion and the benefit that can be gleamed from it.
Thanks,
Matt

On this list I hope to provide not only support and announcements but also to foster a community around all of the related issues - often there are things to be learned from other platforms or related discussions - even the theoretical ones.
From my perspective the IIS SMTP engine discussion covers a wide range and is on topic. For example, this is how MS Exchange could be supported directly. It is my goal to see SNF available and used well on as many platforms as possible.
That said, we do have many IMail users here so those topics are frequent as are Declude discussions.
In the end though, there are a lot of people here - most of whom are dealing with problems and issues that are related to spam, email services, and related technologies such as DNS, server performance, networks & security, etc. In my view, this community is invaluable and provides an enriched level of support on all issues by sharing experiences and additional perspectives.
I would be sorry to see you go, but certainly I understand if this is not a forum you want to follow.

If you do decide to leave this list then please remember to check our web site regularly for any important announcements - we put them in our news section.
Support is also available through our support@ address, of course, though I may refer back to this list if I get stumped ;-).
Thanks,
