Greetings;
I agree with your assessment of !#$*% NOTES. It is a perfect
example of what happens when you try to do everything. It
results in doing very little very well. But ...
What you want to do is define some "agents" to separate your mail.
It isn't that hard, and once you do one, about 5-10 minutes, the others
go much faster. I managed to do it and I am a VM guy!
I generally read my mail in "All Documents" and use the specific
folders for when I want to find some interesting note that I
think I might have saved.
Good Luck!
Dennis

I'm a bit of a luddite on some of this. It I was able to
use a Unix/Linux based mail agent, all would be manageable.
It's this use of Bloated Notes that I find so irritating
because I'm unwilling to waste the time to learn how to
"enhance" it.
C'mon, I _know_ this is possible, it's just that Lotus guts
is not really something I want to learn...

What a bizarre notion! Why not just use a series of filters in your mail
client
to put mail from recognized lists into their own notebooks, or whatever
your
mail client calls them? For example, any mail sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
gets put in its own folder. Thankfully, most of my lists are managed by
servers
that put the list address in the "To:" field. :-)
Just a thought,
Nick
