I have many filters in my office email and several folders to organize it. I get MOM alerts for several dozen MSW servers. When they start screwing up, it often generates thousands of alerts. I get various other notifications as well, so have folders so I know what is going on without wading through thousands of messages.
I still see good tech questions and read many of those threads to see good ideas. Many times I am too swamped to touch any of the list mail and toss everything. Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- By filtering it to its own folder gets it away from the rest of your inbox but means you still have to look thru it all ... only less often and probably more after the fact. I like to be immediately involved in the tech problems part of CGUYS. Setting up filters when needed reduces the list to the problem solving / tech informational posts that I prefer but there seems to be less of the tech fix it or find it stuff. The fix it strings are less often with fewer responses so typically go into less depth. As Tom commented ... he posted a Windows question recently and got no responses. Frequently now I post a tech question and get one or two replies and sometimes none. It seems CGUYS is morphing to a different use and different users... For me that is not good but I guess for others it is better... ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
