....OR....you could configure YOUR mail client to delete [OT] messages. Personally, I have a special filter that moves all messages with "beer" in the subject or body up to the top of the list, bolds them, and if, for some reason, I don't read it within a few minutes, it sends me a text message to let me know that I got another beer. When I log in, if there are any unread beers, I get a friendly AOL-like "you've got beer" announcement to remind me to read my beer.
