Subject:OT, OFF-TOPIC, how about "Off List"? From:Mike Stockman <stockman -at- jagunet -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 21 Mar 2001 15:29:14 -0500
I keep coming up with filters to take off-topic messages to the trash (if
subject contains "OT", if subject contains "light bulb" and so on), but
people keep choosing different ways of admitting, essentially, that their
message doesn't belong on the list. Rather than my continuing to try to
keep up with people's creativity, any chance we could move the messages
to one of those noisy lists that seem to actually welcome off-topic
postings?
Just wondering,
----->Mike
