David, I agree on your "nosy lists" assessment. I'd completely dislike this selective thread filter idea in the context of maillists (not to mention that proper threads on maillists are an utopia anyway) - I'd have missed quite a lot of gems until today with this "feature."

However in the context of "roundup" they may make sense - as the discussion through roundup seems to be (or ought to be) very specific.

The spam I receive has gradually increased during the last few months, but I'm completely aware of the problem source, so I'm in the process of improving my anti-spam arsenal.

In the near term future I'll use a lazy white-list filter in addition with an disposable email system generating one-time addresses to be used in registrations with untrusted websites.
