Personally I'm of the opinion we should eliminate most of these duplicative mailing lists like -performance and -interfaces and just use -general. I don't see that having multiple lists for user questions helps either the users or the answerers due to just this type of problem.
... and instead drive new users away by forcing them to sign up for one massive 400 posts/day list?
I'm not sure about -interfaces, but -performance, -sql, -jdbc and others definitely have specific audiences and themes which they are already handling a *lot* of traffic for.
