Yes and no. They're responsible for addressing the real problems, and
those issues are sometimes missed or lost to the shear volume of bogus
messages that surround them. It's also managements job to try to
streamline things so that engineers are not wasting valuable amounts of
time on things like mailboxes full of spam. If I can optimize that task
and save a few man hours a week, I will.
