The bugs mailing list is archived in a discuss meeting; you can access
it there with a discuss client, or through the web interface at:
http://diswww.mit.edu/menelaus/bugs/
If you're having trouble coping with the traffic, you may find that
unsubscribing from bugs@mit.edu, and following it in discuss is easier,
since we occaisionally delete spam from that meeting.
There's no good facility for us to block mail going to an Athena mailing
list; the best solution is usually for you to configure your client to
ignore various senders.
