Just do what I do:
1. Scan the subject list and delete anything that doesn't appear
to be of interest.
2. Delete any messages that have lazy, top-posted followups.
A rule that marks articles that include "-----Original Message-----"
in the text will find a whole load of these, and will make life
a lot easier. Others will be found and deleted as and when they
are opened, assuming they passed rule #1, of course.
3. Delete all HTML articles. I don't have a rule for these at the
moment, so I usually just delete them as and when I find them.
Following the above, you'll find that you're left with only 10% or so of
your original mailbox size. This 10% usually results in the articles
that are worth reading.
Of course, everyone will have their own way of trimming public mail
lists to a manageable size. This is mine.
