I forgot to copy this to the list and so am reposting as others
using the topics feature may be interested.

     It goes to the reserved topic of Other which acts as a dead-letter
     box.  You can select Other as a topic and it is included in the
     All topic.  For those not selecting All or Other the post will
     not be seen. You can also address how you want this handled to
     some degree by how you define the Default-topics option.

     The format for adding and removing topics is:
 
     SET listname TOPICS: topic1 topic2 -topic3 ...
 
     adds topic1 and topic2 while removing topic3.
