One of the beauties of net-life is that there are lists to meet all kinds of different tastes. I avoid moderated lists because I don't like them. I often delete mail unread from the moderated lists I do subscribe to because it arrives in spurts and because I don't like having to wade through four or five messages I'm not interested in to reach the last one in a bundle. I much prefer a steady flow of single messages, even though some of them are clutter. --Natalie ([log in to unmask])
