Another thing that plays into this is that a lot of folks think it is funny to open up a gmail account and then subscribe it to every vger.kernel.org mailing list in order to fill it up and slow vger down.
I've been cracking down on such malicious subscriptions lately. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
