I used to participate in another high-traffic list.  The Free 
Catholic Mailing List gets over 200 messages per day.  

They had a solution to the high traffic that worked very well (at 
least for me).  The list is echoed to a usenet newsgroup, 
bit.listserv.catholic.  The group is moderated by a robot; only 
subscribers can post to the newsgroup.  Messages posted to the 
newsgroup are distributed to the mailing list, and messages sent to 
the listserver are posted to the newsgroup.  

For me, this worked very well.  I set my subscription option to 
"nomail" so my mailbox didn't get flooded every day.  Plus I had the 
advantage of being able to use tin or trn, complete with kill filters 
and sorting by threads, to read only the messages that interested me.

Could this be a possible solution for us here on debian-user?
