However, if it is really possible to do what the poster says (configure majordomo not to send duplicate emails for different mail lists) that is something that would be useful anyways. The various lists are surely overlapped, with "questions" and "hackers" probably orthogonal to the various specific lists. Quite often I feel it would be appropriate to post to multiple groups, and I refrain from doing that only because I know the rules. And for the same reason I subscribe to probably more groups than I am strictly interested in just to avoid losing possibly interesting messages.
