Anthony,

With being on email lists comes a certain amount of volume. So, if you
don't want to receive a lot of emails via a list, then my advice is
don't get on the list.

Seriously, the fact is that email lists are intended to have
widespread conversations. People are going to post on them. That's the
whole point of having them in the first place.

Alternatively, use your email program of choice to filter list traffic
into separate folders, or to apply separate labels (Gmail is
particularly good at this), or whatever.

If all you want to do is to read on your own schedule, then there's
the archives here:

There's also a mirror of the list on Google Groups:
http://groups.google.com/group/wp-hackers

If the volume is too high and you can't use filters and such, then I
highly recommend using one of those instead of subscribing.

Hope that helps!

I remember how this list was a few years ago, and although it's always been a little bit controversial, can we stop acting like we're all still in primary school?
