The original poster is quite  concerned about hundreds (or thousands) of
empty e-mails pushed into the  lists' subscribers' mailboxes. Why should
hundreds  of people  demonstrate  "non-lazyness" if  the  filter can  be
installed  in  a  single  location --  sparing  Internet  bandwidth  and
everybody's time?

Judging by  the silence  of those, whose  opinion actually  matters, the
said filter  is either in progress  of being implemented, or  will never
be. So I'm going to drop the subject...
