From the ALS listing on alac.icann.org, INEGroup is not an accredited ALS. There were regional ALS-only lists created previously, but most were discontinued last year by request, as the number of mailing lists was huge and, some felt, unmanageable. The problem with client-side monitoring as Evan suggests is bandwidth for people in locations with low and expensive bandwidth. I can set up all sorts of rules on my computer, but then I still have to download the mail before it gets to implement those rules. Same problem if I want to implement rules on my server (if my server is locally hosted, and if I even have access to so do) The ALAC rules exist and the Chair has indicated that it will be considered, so I look forward to the ALAC decision, and hopefully a more streamlined and productive list with fewer distractions.

Just to say that we need to maintain this mailing but we need also to create a new one with only "ALS representative". I think that each ALS has minimum one representative even if they are not legally constituted. Actually some persons are registered to the actual list only to obtain organizational and official informations about the ALS without being involved in the discussions. So its not question of rules or behavior but its question of organizing mailing-list depending on information circulating on the mailing list.
+1 this is why I advocate that the ALSrep/internal list includes - all the chairs of the ALS - including the one under probe - ALS members under the responsibility and monitoring of the registered ALS. This does not touch the current one we can call "external" or "public". jfc
