Just my two cents.

I disagree with Andrei. I like having the announcements on this list even
though many don't pertain to me. It makes me feel in touch with the IX
community which is what I like about this list.

Anyways. I've tried to set up a filter in my mail program to handle
this on my end, but because these types of message don't follow a
standard subject tag, it's makes it near impossible to do
consistently. I'd be happy to set up my own filters if people who post
those things were somehow forced to follow a standard subject tag.

A Standard opening tag for Job, Event and Plug would be great.
might i suggest [job] [event] and [plug] ?

The new digest omits jobs, events and plugs (actually, any thread with
fewer than five posts). The upshot is that subscribers get much, much
less e-mail, and the messages tend to be actual discussions.
Members can switch over to the digest on their profile page:
http://www.ixda.org/profile.php
It's also possible to subscribe via RSS to selected topics:
patterns, methods, tools, research, business, events, eduation,
announcements or jobs. These feeds are curated by IxDA volunteers.

the best solution would be to have the digest or subscriptions
settings allow subscribers to choose which postings
they want to track.

Seems like it's high time to get the Jobs, Events and Plugs postings
their own email list and make sure people know how to set their
subjects lines so they got filtered properly. Having these things
constantly pop into one's a mail client is getting really tedious.

Well. the best solution would be to have the digest or subscriptions
settings allow subscribers to choose which postings they want to
track. But given that this list is volunteer, I expect that's more
work than anyone would want to tackle. I know I wouldn't.

you know you're eyeing that new gig in Hotlanta. It's near the airport!
though many don't pertain to me. It makes me feel in touch with the
