I don't know about that. Sure, I subscribe to the most used ones, or that
I might start using more, but if I have a one off question... Although I
wouldn't ask for a CC, I would check the archives. And I have subscribed,
asked a question, gotten an answer and unsubscribed in some cases -
just because gmane, google groups, etc piss me off with their interfaces.
I wish Google had never bought deja news...
