Sorry guys, but don't you set up email filters on
your mail client?
Kmail has that kind of thing built in, you can even write your own
program and tell kmail to pipe mail through it.
Are you suggesting they invent filters which decide whether a mail
message for this list is spam/chitchat or actual TDE user information?
That would be interesting. If you have such a thing, please share it.
Maybe you're suggesting something else. Please elaborate.
