As a user, I cannot obviously dictate how the spam filters are setup in
Debian related mailing lists. At the same time, I am not proficient
enough to create spam filters of my own. The following method is what I
used to have a spam-free emails from Debian related MLs.
1) Create a separate gmail account for subscribing to email lists.
2) Use this email account to subscribe to mailing lists.
3) gmail filters almost all the spam (99% efficient for me). But gmail
reader does not have a tree view to read emails.
4) Set up a pop account on your local machine and forward your gmail's
emails to this.
5) Read the spam free emails in your favorite email client.
I guess this is not the best solution there is. But it is probably the
one with least effort from the user.
Setting up a spam filter in Tbird isn't that hard, is it?
Probably not. But the above method does not even require you to do that.
Gmail takes care of it. Besides, the method works irrespective of the
email client you use.
