Charlie -- I'm new to Mailmate, too (and loving it!). Here's the approach I've taken with mailing lists.

I created a new Smart Mailbox called Newsletters. In the Conditions section of its properties I set all the requirements for what I want collected (emails sent from all the various newsletter accounts). On the Sub-mailboxes tab I turned on "Submailbox for each unique value of From/Name." This creates a separate folder in the Smart Mailbox for each Name I receive. So, for example, I now automatically have folders under the Newsletters folder for one journal or another.

Finally, in the Smart Mailbox properties I added a rule (in the Rules tab) that tags each incoming message with a Newsletters tag.

Now, on my mail Inbox I set a condition that tells it to shows messages that **don't** have a Newsletter tag. This way, all the messages filtered into my Smart Mailbox don't show up in my Inbox.

Hope this makes sense. As I say, I'm new here, too, so perhaps the others will have a more straightforward way to do this. But the approach I've taken works and I'm thrilled with the results.

Hi,

I'm a new user coming from Opera Mail and BeMail before that so I love the Smart MailBoxes / Label / View principle. But I have a couple of questions that I couldn't find answers to in the manual or in the archives:

* can I create folders for different kinds of mailing lists? Say "Python" for all my various Python mailing lists? * can I configure the views so that e-mails in a view don't appear in other views? This is really useful to stop the inbox being cluttered up.
