I'll third that - having it in one list initially is a good idea, denoted by subject. That's certainly what a Linux mailing list I read does, and that works well. I know people who filter posts with subjects of "[job] foo" or "[announce] bar", and no-one seems to complain. I don't mind some commercial/jobs posts to this list while we're small; that's easier for me than subscribing to seperate lists (that I then have to unsubscribe to seperately if I ever want to). - Ben On Wed, Apr 30, 2014 at 1:22 PM, Paul Arch <paul@esidium.com.au> wrote:
Hi,
New to the list but agree with Andrew.
You could always modify the subject line with something different ( [MT-AU Announce] )
cheers

I feel initially it would be better to have all content in just one or two lists until there's enough daily messages to warrant splitting it out into Jobs/Announcments etc.

Hi folks,
A couple of people have asked me about submitting commercial news to this list, but since the original intent was to always keep this one free of commercial content, marketing material and general advertising, I continue to advise that we should avoid that kind of post to this list.
The next question, then, is whether anyone considers some value in a new list just for that kind of material. We already have ‘jobs@talk.mikrotik.com.au’ for employment opportunity posts, would it be worth also creating a list like ‘announcements@talk.mikrotik.com.au’ for posts like when new products are available or training programs are planning?
Perhaps revision of the rules (and name) for ‘jobs’ list to /include/ announcements?
We have about ½ dozen subscribers to ‘jobs’ at the moment, would anyone consider subscribing to ‘announce’?
Suggestions/comments?
Cheers!
Mike.
