What rule do you use to do this? Michael, I use Evolution. Spam.. Evolution =Tools= Filters =incoming = Filter rules = Add Rule name pharmacy. Add criterion. Execute actions: if any criteria are met change Sender to Subject. select contains .type in Viagra [for other give-away words, Add criterion, etc] Then Add action. change Move to folder to Delete. OK Diversion. [First create folder Newbie (or whatever) File = New = Folder= type name = where? in Local Folders]. Then as above.except that instead of Viagra, type newbie Add action Move to folder click here to select a folder browse to Newbie folder. OK. There are quite a lot of other possibilities too.

I've had that happen in the past with the newbie list.But the e-mail doesn't work either, for the expert list for me. What kind of response are you getting? Are you using any email filters? The e-mail filters I use: 1) delete e-mails with subjects that are explicitly pornographic, selling pharmaceuticals or from credit companies 2) divert newbie posts to a Newbie folder. everything else comes into my Inbox, so I don't think I'm missing anything relevant.

Is there some secret sign,password or ceremony necessary in order to get on to the expert mailing list? I've tried repeatedly to subscribe, both through linux-mandrake.com and by e-mails to sympa, to ask for help with a problem not solved here.
