Hi All I know that this group has been generating too many emails. Many subscribers are flustered at the number of mails. Some of you might be thinking of leaving the group because you do not like your mail box to be clogged with mails. But just in case you do not know, you have the option of receiving all your emails in a digest mode or you can opt for no email mode. That way, you can see what's new on the website and still keep a clear mailbox. You will never receive mail from us if you do that. YOU choose when to visit us ... and you can check out what you like and can skip over what doesn't interest you. (Or choose "Daily digest" ... once or twice a day, you will receive an email -- text only -- listing all new postings ... just click on the "messages" link at the top of the digest to go to the web archive to see any attachments.) How ? Depending on what you opt for, you can send mail to: Digest Mode:- gay_bombay-dig...@yahoogroups.com No Mail Mode:- gay_bombay-nom...@yahoogroups.com Regards modera...@gaybombay.in

Individually received mails get segregated into their threads and are much easier to browse. I think we have to bear with the high volume traffic, as long as the mails are genuine, and offerring good content relevant to gay life and issues. The problem comes when general content is posted which is not directly relevant to gay issues. Such content can be found in 1000s of the lists and ngs, and sometimes we get frustrated on receiving such things in this ng, which I feel should be gay-specific. OK. Someone can argue that gays are having general life also and can post and read general pics, jokes, songs, movies, etc. But, I think that the keyword is "gay". I really feel that gay groups should have gay-specific topics only, and general content should be avoided in that. Then, the second irritating thing is crossposting. Even when issues are gay-speicfic, some members habitually cross-post the very same mail to 2 or 3 or more gay lists, thus, if we are members of several list we get the same gay content through all of them. Ultimately, it is individual member who can control what he is posting, and he should think whether his post is relevant and convenient for the entire group. I appreciate the moderation of this list, that I hardly ever received any spam or scan through gay_bombay. Kudos to all of you.

Re: g_b File - Tired of too many mails? filters are another solution
dear friends, thank you verymuch Mr.moderator for ur solutioni also faced the same problem in the begning ..to solve it i created filters for each group. as a result now all the different group mails accumulate in respective foldsers specifically created for them, and my inbox remains free to receive personal mails. i am subscribed to 5 groups which highly bombard mails ...but now i do not face any problem to create a filter go to 'options' from the drop down menu called "mail" located at top left corner. then go to "filter" create filters for ur grps dont forget to make the folders first and then go on adding filters. regards ankur --- gay_bombay@yahoogroups.com wrote: ired of too many emails from this group?
