Set up some filters. I tell everything from this and other discussion lists, for example, to "Skip the inbox" and apply the label "Discussions". Works like a charm. To clarify my earlier answer about Gmail: I love Gmail because it's the first webmail client I've seen and used heavily that didn't try to simply move a desktop paradigm to the web (like Yahoo! does). I'm so tired of webmail apps that are exact (or at least close) replicas of desktop equivalents. The web is a different animal, and it should be treated as such. Also, I love the idea of labeling email instead of sticking it into folders. The folder model is severely broken. It's an implementation model - it just reflects the design of the underlying system. But I'm don't think like a computer - I think like me. I want to categorize things in a variety of ways, not just into singular folders. Foldering is an old metaphor that has lived on way too long. And I love that conversations are put together into a single thread on a single page. This is how real conversations happen, and it makes sense, and it means I don't have to remember the context for every message. -r- ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
