[TowerTalk] time to modernize the reflector

If you aren't interested in a topic why receive an email about it at all? I get enough email every day so anything to reduce the clicks and deletes is a plus.

A discussion group is not an email client. Apples vs oranges.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

This is also easy to do in full-featured email clients like Thunderbird, 
which I have used for many years. It can sort in many ways. I sort on 
the From field, putting each of the 20 or so email reflectors I read 
into it's own mailbox. It's free, from Mozilla, the developer of 
FireFox. Before that, I used PMMail, which had similar capabilities.
