The daily build things are terrible noise, but I don't remember why it
is hard to turn off. Even worse is that gmail is really bad at filtering
them. (I tried to match on "[build" but that still matches "build". So
things like "Win32 builds are sucky right now", also get put into the
'things I can probably ignore' folder.)

I would love to nuke daily build emails from orbit, but for the rest I'm
concerned about missing newly-created objects that I really do care about.
