| That's what killfiles and filters are for.
Nonsense. There's no reason everyone else should have to go install/fiddle
mail filters just so you can continue to receive junk mail via a list where
it doesn't belong.
No-one is stopping you, or anyone else, from receiving all that noise if
you want to receive it - just go ask, I'm sure it will all get sent to
you. Even if the whole IETF wanted to (which we don't), we simply don't
have the ability to stop that.
However, the ability exists to prevent noise postings on the IETF's list,
and it is entirely reasonable that it be implemented when it becomes
absolutely necessary.
If you want to, set up another list for Fleming to send his noise at, I
think the IETF would even allow you to advertise it (once) on the ietf
list, so everyone else who you believe is out there who wants to get
that rubbish can subscribe, and read it all.
