For those of you using Outlook (you know who you are, that's right, you in the red shirt), I personally recommend setting a rule to move all of your mailing list items to another folder and then viewing them by conversation topic. That way you don't have to sift through fifty items about something you don't care about just to find out if someone responded to your message.

I do the same. All mails from [EMAIL PROTECTED] are kept in a separate mail folder called perlmail. I subscribe to multiple lists, like sas-l, perl, gams-l, etc. The sas list is also a high-volume list, (>100 mails/day). It would not do to have them all in the inbox. Fitering mails like this is a solution. best, -tir -- Tirthankar, IGIDR. +91-22-8400919 x275 (r), x593(o), x542(CFL). http://www.igidr.ac.in/~tir MONUMENT, n. A structure intended to commemorate something which either needs no commemoration or cannot be commemorated. The bones of Agammemnon are a show, And ruined is his royal monument, but Agammemnon's fame suffers no diminution in consequence. The monument custom has its _reductiones ad absurdum_ in monuments "to the unknown dead" -- that is to say, monuments to perpetuate the memory of those who have left no memory. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
