I would think so and I suspect that most people would like to decide
for themselves who to ignore or filter.

Isn't that what the moderators have been doing all along behind the
scene?

Well, do we know what criteria the moderators have been using when
deciding whether a message should or should not be posted to the list?

Is there a place where list members can go to see what messages have
been discarded by the moderators?

Should the filtering of messages be more transparent?
