i have the feeling that email subjects have been
created for that.

personally, i'd like people:

- to put meaningful subjects in their messages,
- cut out not relevant text when replying,
- creating new threads when talking about a new topic,
- and generally read and try to follow the good old netiquette.

normally, this is not a high traffic list where it is worth to setup
some sort of automatic filtering based on tags and i'm not sure if
tagging will provide any benefit over good subjects (and i'm pretty
sure that the ones who tend to write bad subjects will also avoid
picking the right tag...)


on the other side, i can understand why somebody would want to send
emails with the email address finance at libregraphicsmeeting.org and get
the answers delivered to the whole finance group (well, the whole lgm
list... but that's by design...).

i could finally check with the tuxfamily administration panel /
documentation and we can create email addresses.

currently we have the following email addresses:

- admin@
- social@
- talks@

those addresses have been created in the past on demand of lgm
organizers.
social@ is probably the only one that might currently be in use.

the control panel allows the creation of forward addresses to at least
one email address but we have none setup. (it does not mention
multiple forwards but they might be possible.)

just tell me if there is a need for action on that topic.

have a funny day
