<div dir="ltr">Matěj, thanks for the suggestion. I haven't used Usenet in over a decade. I may try using a Usenet reader if I feel like trying something new (actually very old, but kind of unfamiliar to me from being not fresh in my head), but for now, I'm going to use Gmail's filtering so I can prevent the python-dev messages from being mixed with the other stuff in my inbox. If that is somehow not good enough for me, after taking a few days or weeks to get used to it, then I will try other ways of dealing with it.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Mar 5, 2018 at 10:08 PM, Matěj Cepl <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mcepl@cepl.eu" target="_blank">mcepl@cepl.eu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="">On 2018-03-03, 02:15 GMT, Elias Zamaria wrote:<br>

</span>Go to <a href="https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mail.python.org/<wbr>mailman/listinfo/python-dev</a> in the<br>
last input box fill in your email, and click on [Unsubscribe or<br>
edit options]. On the next page fill-in your password (you get<br>
it every month in email), and on the settings page switch “Mail<br>
delivery” to “Disabled”.<br>
<br>
You will not get any message from the list, but you will be<br>
still subscribed, so you can post to the list.<br>
<br>
Then open your NNTP newsreader<br>
(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newsreader_(Usenet)" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/<wbr>wiki/Newsreader_(Usenet)</a>) (you use<br>
one, right? It is the only sensible way how to deal with the<br>
large community lists) and subscribe to<br>
nntp://<a href="http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.devel" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">news.gmane.org/gmane.<wbr>comp.python.devel</a> . You will have<br>
all advantages of newsreader (killfile, easy ignoring whole<br>
threads at once) in the comfort of your computer, perhaps even<br>
in the offline state.<br>
<br>
If you don’t want to go all that length, just use email program<br>
which can kill threads (e.g., Thunderbird<br>
<a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ignore-threads" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://support.mozilla.org/<wbr>en-US/kb/ignore-threads</a> )<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>
Matěj<br>

<br>
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its<br>
victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live<br>
under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The<br>
robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at<br>
some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own<br>
good will torment us without end, for they do so with the<br>
approval of their consciences.<br>
