Neither does mine...so actually I delete everything with the same subject heading. Which sometimes is a mistake, because sometimes people have wildly changed the topic while leaving the same subject heading. Oh, well. It's probably not the end of the world. *grin*
When I do bother to read the list you're probably talking about, I'm usually a few months behind at *best*. ctrl-d (thread delete) cleanses so much stupidity with a single keystroke.
1. Find a threaded mailreader that you like. Failing that, find a threaded newsreader that you like and gateway these types of lists to news. (Old trick.) 2. Lag the conversations by a day to three days. Even on that list, you'll find that the threads take shape and are deletable by that point. 3. Use ctrl-d or its equivalent with wild abandon. You'll feel better.
