This is a bit off the wall, but have you thought of using mailman Essentially what you can do is have your local mailman hold its own version of all the mailing lists that you subscribe to. That way, assuming you also install a web server on your box, you can use a web interface to get at mail which mailman automatically archives for you at the frequency you specify Its fairly easy to update exim.conf to link into to mailman (there is a mini howto at www.exim.org) and you can use exim's filter rules to direct messages from your external mailing lists to the internal equivalents. You can then also subscribe or unsubscribe to your internal mail list if you want to see the mail in your inbox (and put filters in your MUA (like I do with kmail)). The other thing you can do is gate some mailing lists to newsgroups in mailman. This allows you to receive and reply to news groups as though they were mailing lists. - -- Alan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE71cHQ1mf3M5ZDr2kRAna+AKChkBpXzD2M8mkWdmwFwnMpqOeZwgCgurLC uENF56MDxqbC6pEOXcGvKfQ= =ZwPa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
