Yup, precisely.
Sadly I don't know of any feature that does this in Mail.app, but you can always make a Smart Mailbox with the rule Any Recipient : Contains : "nanog@merit.edu" and delete things within that mailbox.
Or a rule to at least mark the messages as read. I can do that -- I do do that, for threads that have gotten too annoying for too long, but it takes many mouse clicks to add each new offending subject line. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~smb
