Uh, oh, now the thread police are invading our listserver. :)

And in addition, maybe the listserver software could be reworked to
automatically purge those stupid messages that get sent to the
mailing list instead of the listserver...you know, the ones that
say "set index daily" or "unsubscribe" or "subscribe" or "help".

The number of those are going up dramatically, too.
