Two ways to eliminate some of the time sorting through unwanted emails:

1) sort on the subject line, highlight all the unwanted emails (like "g 
word"), delete all at once


2) make a folder into which all the emails from the callers' list go. 
Then you can delete them when you have time, and still sort them on the 
subject line and jettison all "g word" emails at the same time.

Questions:
#1) Is it possible to recieve a daily digest of this list instead of 
each individual message?  Like you can do with yahoo groups.  Then I 
wouldn't mind all the junk so much.


#2) Is there a facebook equivalent of this list?  Those are nice, 
because when you don't have time, you don't bother to look.  If you 
don't comment, you don't see the whole discussion unless you really go 
looking for it.  I would appreciate the discussion, even the repeated 
discussion,  that happens here a lot more if it were not in my email.


Other solutions?

On the other hand, digests don't work very well these days because people
don't trim their posts. So you may find digests just as annoying, but for
different reasons.

If you go to the link at the bottom of every message you can change your
subscription status to the digest.
