Well, since I belong to multiple mail lists over five different accounts, I have more than enough inboxes already, thankyouverymuch! And I'm sure I'm not the only one here in that position.

Is it really too much to ask that an email list message identify itself in the header? Every other list I subscribe to (other than the G-Books list) does so, and nowhere else has there ever been any complaints about it being a problem......
They all do identify themselves in the header, just not in the subject which is the wrong place for it.
And there most certainly have been complaints elsewhere!
You don't need to set up another inbox, just another mailbox for that group. What is so bizarre about that. Why should the rest of us be forced to have shortened headers and poor threading just for the convenience of a couple of lazy people.

I propose a compromise. How about using just a 'G' for G-list much like the Quadlist uses 'q'. That would satisfy both elements to my way of thinking. Personally I don't need it to filter for my various list mailboxes, but I do key on the 'q' for the Quadlist to filter it. Different strokes for different folks I always say!
