Since almost the first day I hacked on PostgreSQL I have been
filtering
both lists into the same folder, so they pretty much appear to be one
and the same to me anyway.
I'm curious, do you combine any other lists like that? I've played
around
with that idea (for example, I used to combine webmaster emails,
pgsql-www,
and -slaves emails but the slaves traffic was too high so I had to
split it
back out). As someone subscribed to a good dozen pg lists, I've
always been
quite amazed how much email some of the folks here manage to
process... I
suppose I could just chalk it up to a pine vs. gui thing, but I
suspect there
are some other tricks people have to make emails more manageable
(anyone
combine all pg mail to one folder?)
Reading pg ml mail is relatively high on my list of things I want to
do, so I have it all come into my inbox. However, with other mailing
lists (e.g., ruby-talk and the RoR lists which have the highest
volume of any mailing list I'm subscribed to) I generally have them
routed into their own folder. I usually let lower-volume mailing
lists just end up in my inbox as well
Mail.app on Mac OS X 10.4. I make heavy use of the Mail Act-on[1]
plugin to make further processing of mail easier (such as archiving
to appropriate folders).
