Hear, hear! I too find the listserv posts educational and I appreciate getting them. I would not be better served by an arrangement that causes me to have to seek out the postings. I am not immune to the occasional annoyance at a flurry of out of office messages, but please don't kill the listserv over it. I wonder if there is a setting at the host that would stop a reply from acting like a "reply all." As Jonathan pointed out, I have delete button...and I know how to use it.

And yes it generates a lot of unnecessary e-mail. But spam generates far more, and I for one like the listserve as it is. I have learned a lot about the CTPP and census. And - dare I say it - I don't find it overtaxing to hit the "delete" button when necessary.
