I think I may be speaking for many mostly silent admins here, but I love this list. I run a small but growing shop and it's just me on the Windows side of things. I don't contribute much to the list so I try to keep my questions for when I'm really stuck on something. And I have to tell you, this list has saved my ass on more than a few occasions and I have learned much from watching the threads on many, many topics.
The people here have always been kind and generous with their answers. The banter is just fine with me because of the reasons others have spoken to, and, I have no problem managing my inbox.

I can read the threads I want to read, and just archive the rest. Every once in a while I'll just go through and archive everything so I don't have 3500 unread messages in my inbox.

I have to use Loathsome Notes 7 to read this list; there is no thread view. Nor sorting on subject. To me, it all comes in a long, flat, received-order core-dump. :-) While I wouldn't mind more signal, I've been on this list for like 8 years, and 2 jobs. It can be aggravating, but (eventually) I always come back. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
