  Then, presumably, the OP would have said so.  :-)

  There is actually a point I am trying to make here.  I have noticed a
tendency among techies (I include myself here) to over-complicate things.
Granted, this is often due to our experiences with a complex world that
requires complex solutions.  However, it also means we tend to turn
mole-hills into mountains.  The result is, people who are getting started
(with email, with Linux, with computers, with whatever) get a ton of
complexity shoved down their throat all at once, resulting in information
overload.

  Moral being: A simple question deserves a simple answer, when possible.

  (At this point, the OP should chime in, saying this sort of discriminatory
filtering is exactly what they were looking for. ;)
