I > have no interest in receiving a bunch of messages of no interest. > I think you have not, then, understood how a mailing list works. The whole point is that each person submitting a post is, in effect, e-mailing many people (however many are subscribed) with one post. Most of us, beginners and more experienced users alike, find that the majority of messages are of some degree of interest; there are few of us who cannot learn *something* from another list member at some time or another and most of us enjoy the "being one of a community" aspect. I hope you will stick around and join in. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

Sure, but how would a computer know if you were interested in a particular message? I've learned a lot from this list from those answering questions I hadn't thought to ask.

Re: [LegacyUG] ... usergroup message handling ... Jim Hughes
Only if people reply to you privately. The whole point of mailing lists is the sharing of information. For busy lists like this one you need to learn how to use your email program to filter the replies so you can delete that which you find of no interest.

Re: [LegacyUG] ... usergroup message handling ... Jim Hughes
That depends entirely on the mail program you are using. Eudora allows you to specify where messages go based on sender, subject, etc, in various combinations. If you include a unique word/phrase (i.e., JIMH) in the subject line, then those messages could be placed in a specific folder (i.e., MyLegacy) and anything else from the LUG could be put in the trash. Doing that also means that you will miss any follow-up messages with a different subject line and all hannuncements from Legacy because they won't have that word/prase in the subject. Pegasus mail allows you to retrieve just the headers (Subject & From) and determine which messages to download and which to delete. This ensures you will see all the subject lines but will only need to download the items of interest. Pegasus is free; Eudora has a free version. Neither is targeted for malware as Outlook and Outlook Express are.

Re: [LegacyUG] ... usergroup message handling ... Jim Hughes
I think that is a part of your servers job. This is the culling service which 'avoids' spam, and (some people have this, but not me), splitting the 'good stuff' to various 'categories'. This is not the task of the User Group, but is a good question none the less. you need to contact 'twmi.rr.com' directly and ask them.
