Why would anyone care about b? It is a mailing list which by nature is
somewhat anonymous and self inclusive. Either a post matches proper list
content or a moderator will boot the poster with or without warning.
Thanks,

Well, as an example, a message saying:

"There are the following mistakes in the latest SSP draft:

1. ..
2. ..
3. .."

would have a very different meaning coming from me than from Jim Fenton.

Who is saying something is quite often relevant.
