+1...I think this would send a better message.
I just scrolled back through a view pages of my archive of the list and came
up with the following probable indicators of an announcement (in the subject
line):
cfp
call for participation
call for papers
deadline extension
deadline extended
extended deadline
workshop
conference
newsletter
announcement
announcing
ann:
fwiw, a starting point for anyone looking at implementing a simple filter.

Slightly less Draconian would be perhaps for the algorithm to be
applied and any announcement-like posts it identified would get [ANN]
automatically inserted in the subject line.
Another few lines of code and the original author could be notified
and told that resending with the line "this is not an announcement"
will get it past the filter...
Cheers,
Danny.
