I do not wish to go to great length discussing this.
It's really quite simple, as others have said already - set your filters, delete when you want to, read when you want to and manage your workspace accordingly.
I belong to several JISC and other discussion groups. I post occasionally when I have something to discuss/respond to.
I advise others to do likewise. Discussion groups are for just that-discussing things!

I personally enjoy getting Peter's postings, I have found them very useful over the years I have been a subscriber to this list. I too have no problems with managing the e-mails that come through to me - my delete button does get hot with use some times, but not due to Peter's postings...

A very sensible approach by Ellinor and one that I adopt too, I look at Peter's subject title and either open it (a small number) and read or delete it.
What is all this about domination of the list serv? What a very sad thread this is indeed.

Re: Open letter to Records Management Community
Ironically, I think part of this discussion comes down to a records management question of do you want Peter?s emails in one big summary document, without appropriate headings as to content, or with the useful titles, so you can recover the one you want.
I much prefer informative subject lines so I only have to open the headings that look of interest to me. I?m not a RM person, but have need to follow a FEW of the topics on this listserver. I was originally annoyed at all Peter?s postings, but now have learned to just file them away. I only open 1 in 10 or 20, but those often turn out to be useful to me.
Peter is not dominating the listserver with his own perspectives per se, he is acting as a conduit for information that the rest of us might miss.
In the end, I appreciate the service he provides. He is concise, gives a summary and a reference for more info.
I would request that in general the RM listserver try to encourage posters to have informative subject lines, content in the email that says what its about (without requiring the reader to go to another link first) and a reference.
Cheers,
Ellinor Michel

All,
I find one person?s dominance and saturation of this list, to be most irritating, and inappropriate.
I am aware that this has caused problems in the past, that remain unresolved; and whilst it is permitted to continue in this manner, I feel that the effectiveness and reputation of this list is compromised.
In response to any criticism of the frequency of posts, it has been suggested (perhaps even instructed?) that list members adjust their settings to filter out particular mails.
Why should list members have to re-engineer their configuration of the system to suit the needs of one member? I was under the impression that this was an opt-in, not an opt-out service?
For the record ? I have no personal issue with Peter. As I stated yesterday, I find his postings both interesting and informative. I personally choose to manage the flow of communications from Peter through his Twitter feed.
My issue is simply regarding the excessive frequency of these particular posts, and the assumption that others should adjust their personal settings to accommodate one user.
Nobody else seems to have the desire or requirement to post multiple times a day, and the fact that so many of you seem to have configured your filters accordingly would suggest that you have no desire or requirement to receive multiple postings per day!
Whilst one member is allowed to dictate policy over other users of this list service, and whilst excessive mails (?spam? or otherwise) bother my inbox, I no longer wish to be part of this community.
I will therefore be unsubscribing from this list.
Regards,
Brian
