Howdy ~John,

There is a rule called Known which can be used to sort incoming mail from
*known* addresses into a specific folder.  The definition of known
addresses depends upon which of your configured address books and groups
are selected.

So, you could file all known users into a subfolder of the Inbox called
known.

There is an option to continue with other rules, in case you want to perform
other filtering actions on known users.  If you leave that option unset,
then the following rules will only be applied to unknown addresses.

You can also setup an Outgoing Mail rule, which I call Capture Recipient
Addresses, which can add recipient addresses to your address book.  Thus,
people with whom you correspond automatically become known.

Hope this helps.

 Howdy ~John,

I've no idea how you managed to do it, but you seem to be sending 2
copies of your mails to the list and one to the original sender. I
suggest checking templates, or making sure you're not hitting your
Reply-to All button. I don't think there is a need for anybody on
this list to get duplicated mail.
