Hi all,

There is a simple yet efficient way to stop or avoid off-topic threads:

DO NOT REPLY TO IT!

If you reply, it won't stop. Even when you add a note that this is
off-topic.

If a part of the email you're replying to is off-topic, just ignore that
part (let it go quietly to the cybervoid) and reply to the rest. If you
really feel the urgent need to reply, then do it directly to the poster.

Please, let's stick to the subject.

Thanks,
Laurent
