[Elecraft] How do I unsubscribe?

I think the whole reflector became too "heavy" with the introduction of the 
K3. It is difficult for me to keep track of what's going on, especially 
given the fact that I have no interest in K3 at this point. Eric and Wayne 
stated numerous times that they like to keep "the momentum" and don't want 
to split the reflector into different products but it is going to get even 
worse, once the amplifiers come to the scene. Now I have to sort thru 
hundreds of posts each month just to read only those posted about the K2.

If a specific word like the product name is included in the subject line I 
can have my mail client sort the mails for me into different mailboxes. For 
instance all the mails regarding K2 could start with "K2" in the subject, 
same for K3, etc. Then how do you make thousands of users to follow such 
naming convention?
