What about looking into a different mail reader? Personally I use mozilla and use the message filtering into separate folders for each of the lists, then turn the threading on and then I essentially have a semi-news reader, with the exception that the message is fully downloaded rather than just the headers, but I have the extra bandwidth to burn.... Sorry this won't help the bandwidth conscious, but since you mentioned replacing Lookout anyways... Now if I could just use this method at work and not have to resort to the web based mail client..... http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
