How about a second list, which I suspect most list members would subscribe to, for commercial vendor postings? I mentioned this idea earlier, but since most likely no one is reading many of the responses to Tim's first spammage post, it doesn't surprise me that there have been no bites. I'm not sure it's what I want, or how well it would work, but it'd be interesting to have a look at. I do appreciate and do business with some of the list vendors, but occasionally wish it was easier to tune them out (and yes I know all about filters, etc... just try it via IMAP ;).
