[mlmmj] [RFC] Muting and unmuting threads

Hello,

It's well known that people often complain about subscribing
to high-traffic mailing lists, which results in receiving a lot
of unwanted messages, etc.  A recent example of such complaints
came from the git mailing list. [1]

People often want to receive messages that belong to specific
threads only, e.g. to those resulting from patches they send to
the mailing list.  Thus, I was thinking about extending mlmmj
to support such features, e.g. by implementing new features and
commands that configure a subscription to receive only replies
to their own messages sent to the mailing list.

Has something like this ever already appeared as a suggestion
or a though?  Any feedback would be much appreciated.
