I may be repeating myself, but we’re guests here. The ISOC has graciously offered to include us in the many lists they host for free.

There are legitimate reasons for the order they use - e.g., to avoid spam on a large number of lists that are under separate control. I did already ask them to consider the collateral damage of using innocuous excerpts to filter for spam. I hope we can let them decide how to proceed.
