Yes.  I thought all pgfoundry commit messages were going to be tagged
with a special header line, along the lines of "X-Pgfoundry: project",
so that you could drop 'em all or alternatively filter by project.
The rather large number of pgestraier mailings that showed up today
haven't got any such label.

If the labeling depends on the knowledge and cooperation of the
individual project leaders it will not work --- it has to be done
site-wide.

If nothing is done I'm probably personally going to start filtering
against "From: anyone@pgfoundry.org" which would be unfortunate,
since it'd likely catch non-commit messages too.
