Please don't flame me too bad for mentioning this... I have my kids set up with AOL email addresses. AOL's latest version allows very good customization of the email stuff, as well as the filtering like what was mentioned (i.e. only from those in a list), as well as combinations of that and other methods. I've been an AOL member since AOL was AppleLink Personal Edition (I get a greatly reduced rate for being a charter member), and have been through a lot of ups and downs, but I think they are finally getting on the right track. With all the online stuff you get, its worth me keeping just to save the magazine subscriptions I used to subscribe to but are now included in the AOL service. Like I said, please don't flame... I know, I know... But... I'll follow with another option so this one doesn't get so big. --> Russ -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
