I think an accusation that the FSF is conducting a DOS attack on the IETF 
is very serious.  

If you find several dozen emails a denial of service you might want to 
consider a better mail client.  I'd rather not have had to spend the 5 
minutes it took me to skim and delete them, but it's hardly a denial of 
service.
