Thanks for your good humor; you were right---but not any more. ;-)
The great majority of subscribers do not have it set; I guess what
happened is that at migration from 2.0.13 to 2.1.5 the default was
_not_ applied to existing members.
If anybody has a strong opinion and reasoned arguments about which way
(either way) the default should be set, please write to
list-manager(a)xemacs.org. Although I personally think it better if the
user does the filtering by default, we can change it. I do think that
our welcome message should warn about the implications for filtering,
etc., if we do set it up that way.
