It is so easy to set up folders and have
emails go to them. I did it with MS Outlook
and Outlook Express years ago. Now I do
it with Mozilla's Thunderbird and Google's
Gmail. It is the smart way to go.
Divide and conquer.
If anyone would like instruction on how to
do this, email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The difficulty of the struggle is
to make long distances near and
turn problems into advantages.
I.e., software developers should
trim bloat and turn errors into
features.

After I got back from a week vacation in spring and found 1500 messages,
I found out about filters. So my list messages go into one set of
folders, e-mails from the family go into another one, and so on. After
two weeks away, I found 3300. But I could read the family ones first
because of the filtering. I know have 250 to go after 2 weeks working
on them. Because all the Legacys filter together, I can sort of keep
track of the subjects instead of bouncing back from this list to another
list, which would happen if they were unfiltered.

Does anyone have time to read all of these??
No, I have not been able to keep on top of the posts from this group
for a few weeks now. I'm just reading the most recent ones (less than
12 hours worth) to see what is going on at the moment. Have over 800
unread list messages right now, and don't know if I will ever get the
time to read them - some may be deleted unopened eventually.
You are using a filter to put the list posts into a folder separate
from your other mail, aren't you? I find it the only way to cope with
any list, so I can concentrate on one group when I'm ready to, and
ignore it until then without the posts interfering with other emails
that need priority for whatever reason. Each list that I belong to has
its own folder, and a filter to put the posts into it.
