I too have often pondered the question of the mysterious 2400c.
I myself am the proud owner of a Duo and have oft had my hopes dashed upon
opening an email with an interesting subject only to find that it does not
apply to my little freind. whilest I do not consider it a sin, I do find
myself wishing for a better way to distinguish the duo mailings from the
2400 false alarms.
Seriously now. I'm not a mac historian. Why are the 2400c's grouped
together with the Duo's in the first place? are they similar? and would
making a new heading or grouping be difficult? its a small change, but i
think it'd make a difference.

PS. Aren't the 2400c users tired of filtereing through Duo mailings too?
Whats your side?
