Dear Network,
Perhaps the managers of the lists could indicate whether
they consider that replies to lists put too much load on the
network. Personally, I often find useful information in replies
to questions which, at first sight, were not of any particular
interest. For those who feel it is a waste of time reading
individual replies, it is usually possible to discover the content
of a message in the Subject and skip it if it seems to be of
no interest.
