It does not help, since some Lists are Hight-Traffic and if someone
like to ask only one thing, she/he hast ro receive severl 100 useless
messages in the time, where she/he is waiting for an answer.
Some peoples have only access to mailaccounts of 5 or 8 MByte which
cannot handel some Super-high-traffic-Mailinglists...
I had to setup my Mailaccount to 2500 MByte to handel this traffic if
I must go to hospital, holidays or such without missing some messages.
(I get per day between 15 and 40 MByte of messages)
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
