A. Give Thunderbird a shot. It does a great job with threads. B. High-volume mailing list should go into their own folder. Don't let a flame-war in asterisk-users distract you from your work. You can easily set up a filter rule by the List-ID header. This sends only messages sent from the mailing list server directly to that folder, and not any follow-ups. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tzafrir _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
