Could we NOT do this.  The answer to simpler filtering is use a mailer that
can filter correctly, not bung up the subject lines with stuff that can be
deduced from other header fields.  Any combination of Sender, To or CC
containing gnu-win32 should do the job.

If the admins want to work on the mailing list server then can we do
something about the really slow turn-around of messages - somewhere between
1 and 6 days is getting to be normal - maybe we should just move over to a
newsgroup.
