But we *are* filtering. I'm filtering out all mail from -advocacy.
Besides, I already got off of lists that I wanted to be on due to the
traffic. Now you want me to join one that I don't want to be on so I
can get more traffic? I've seen how well filters work. I've asked you
questions that I never did get an answer to. How is that any better than
not getting the mail to begin with?
