I am finding all the rubbish none gardening posts on this group a real
drag. As most of them are also posted to other groups can anyone advise on
whether Outlook Express can be set to dump all posts that are addressed to
other newsgroups. I subscribe to an email list on another hobby of mine and
we get none of this. Is there a garden related email list?

But Mike, this 'IS' an email list/facility for the owners of this site. They
use it as if it were their own. Private chats which """SHOULD""" be on email
......... ""Do you have one of these plants?"", 'Yes I do', ""Oh good, I will
pop in and get one"" Such stuff could and SHOULD go to email and I have
remarked on it before.

Only one thing to do. LIVE WITH IT.

I was on a uk.local. newsgroup a few years back and it was net nannied to
the 'n'th degree. The Mickey was taken out of said net nanny to such a
degree that the newsgroup became useless :-((

You see the same happening here. :-((

Aggression
Net Nannying
Private emails
Kissy Kissy chat.

:-((

and the odd gardening item

There is one HUGE advantage and by product of this newsgroup :-))

Lurkers who NEVER post but email :-))
