These days those messages are the best stuffs sent to this list, I'm definitely not bored by them. Anyone subscribing this list knows is a 500 emails/months list.

To me, "Hello" and "Thank you" are quite under-used words on this list (in the movement generally but particularly here) so I would prefer we didn't rule these emails out.
After all, if we remove pile-on positive threads that contain little information then pile-on negative threads with equally little information will probably still remain.
Although I am quite rarely sending "thank you" messages (OK, it's not just "quite rarely", as I sent it once and it was privately to Cary Bass), I tend to agree with Chris. This list is quite tough and it's nice to see thanking and welcoming threads, no matter if I am not reading them.
As sending those messages is quite controllable -- meaning that people from WMF/chapters/similar structures are doing that, I think simple addition into the subject line like "[notification]" would allow those who don't like to filter such messages.
