My problem with the high message volume is this:

I could unsubscribe from the mail list and read the postings via 
Egroups. But then, whenever I want to post something, I cannot, because 
the mail list does not allow posts from non-subscribers.

So, even though I hate the flood of emails from the list (lately, it is 
becoming absurd, about 150 to 250 messages per day), I remain a 
subscriber in order to retain my ability to post, even though I rarely 
do so.

My 2 cents worth.
