IMHO, the prudent AUP approach should be focused on maintaining the
Subject line with the Body.  Clearly everybody has something to add to
anything posted.  The big problem is wanting to listen/learn about
something on IPv6, only to discover that %50 of the posts aren't aligned
with the Subject.  Each receiver can then kill-thread as they see
appropriate, and everybody will be happy.
