>>> Actually having mailing lists send you mail is insane.

Once upon a time, I would have agreed.  However, it is becoming increasingly 
difficuilt to get to the newgroups directly from the workplace.  The only 
recourse is to use the mailing lists, such as those provided by various sites, 
such as python.org.  This might also account for why so many folks top post 
rather than bottom post as postings look like email.  And in a corporate 
setting, most people use top posting for email, pushing the history down and 
out of the way.
