Then use better tools!  I easily cope with this list -- and another
one which averages 300 letters a day.  I set up separate accounts
for each list and gateway them into local 'mail.*' newsgroups.

Admittedly, if it comes in with your real mail it would be a pain.

But I'd rather keep it as email than news just to keep that cretin
Sternlight out :-)
