Subject: TML split


    With regard to the TML split:

    I personally don't care either way but I thought of some alternatives
    that might please people.

    This of course means work (a lot?) for James.

    Initiate a code to be present on each message (possible list below):

            TNE:  Traveller New Era specific,
            FFS:  Fire Fusion & Steel specific,
            HG:   High Guard or Trillion Credit Squadron specific,
            CT:   Classic Traveller specific,
            GDW:  stuff about releases and or erata etc,
            FLM:  Flame material about anything you hate,
            GEN:  non-specific stuff
            others to be determined

    Here's your work James:

    Each subscriber should be able to specify which labelled messages they
    want to receive.

    Any messages received by the server that DON'T have a label (or
    several labels) are rejected and returned to the sender with an
    appropriate dirty message.


    Sounds really complicated but it would be nice.

    Is this possible or is my head in the clouds again?
