Which is why for me, Gmane is an indispensable tool, along with a decent NNTP
client.

I subscribe to python-ideas and python-dev so I can post them, but I nomail
python-ideas (not yet python-dev) so my inbox doesn't get cluttered.  Then I
read the Gmane newsgroups and as this message shows, can easy post to threads
I care about.  I can kill-thread any I don't.  Plus, I read them when I have
time and can ignore them when I don't.

I appreciate this isn't a solution for everyone, but it allows me to stay
engaged on my own terms and not get overwhelmed by Python email traffic.

Cheers,
-Barry
