Apparently, Mary is less pathological case than Cude, but problem is that she is a perpetual motion machine that goes endlessly onwards and onwards without need for input energy (food). Like she has moral oblication to protect poor and consideration inable investors from getting cheated.
It would be nice if we could introduce her and other hyperactive posters a special rule that there is a two post per day limit for messages that contain quoted material and after the quota is exceeded there should be required 24 hour delay before reply can be sent. This would effectively prevent inboxes to overflow without limiting too much discussion. Actually, it should enhance the quality of discussion, because people would think more carefully what is relavant to say. For filtering people, usually it is plausible to filter not just messages that come from the address jounivalko...@gmail.com, but also messages where the body contain a phrase "Jouni Valkonen" or email address. This way also replies will get filtered. Also with filtering with Gmail, instead of diverting them into thrash bin, it would be better to mark them as "read" automatically. This way it is easy to ignore them in threads, but if there are new topics posted they still appear in the inbox and will get noted, although not necessarily read. —Jouni Ps. After Mary came here I have in my inbox more than 70 threads that contain unread messages. I would say that there is definitely a problem with posting frequency.
