My pet peeve with the CF-Talk list? Folks who go way off the topic of
the original post but leave the subject heading intact.

I find that managing the CF-Talk list as nested conversations through
gmail is very easy. And I also take advantage of the filtering
capability to flag messages I'm likely to be interested in. Thanks in
no small part to JMunson's response to the previous thread, a whole
bunch of messages with a topic I'm interested in (MySQL) wer flagged
as relevant when it's just someone complaining about a topic and
others (rightly) refuting the post.

So I'd suggest getting a Gmail account, using filters, and keeping
post subjects somewhat in the right ballpark about the content if you
take the thread off-topic.

Course maybe I'm in the minority as well.
