Feasible suggestion; but I don't believe it should be necessary to filter out 
addresses or subjects. Especially the subject [OT] since often someone will 
post a link to an interesting article. Filtering senders is even _less_ 
palatable to me since if I do that I miss something of benefit.

If my ISP would allow POP filtering it would be a better way to handle this.

I humbly beg forgiveness for the offencive message. 

As I'm creeping up on the half  century mark myself I can fully relate to your 
comment. It won't happen again. ;-)

I'll shut up and prepare to install beta1 now. Working on rsyncing the last 
ISO as I send this.

Peace;
