Do I let crm114 filter my Suspects mail, or teach it that I want to see anything sent there by a real person? I mean, there's a lot of it that I really don't want to see.
Wasn't suspects INTENDED to be "events-announce"? Somewhere along the way "can someone recommend a plumber in Somerville" became an "event".
I'm soooo amazed at how little it has affected my life to send suspects to a junky account that I only read (or, rather, mass-delete) every couple of weeks.
To quote from the charter: suspects is an announcement only mailing list used for annoucing parties, events, movements and happenings within the greater elbows area. Based on a non-rigorous look at what's in the spool right now, I'd say it's running 20% or so "on topic". I used to be annoyed about it, but now I've mostly gotten over it (not really reading it any more helps greatly) and I just use off-topic suspects posts as killfile fodder and get on with life. For whatever reason, the average net denizen is not what they used to be.
