Re: [MlMt] Grouping mailing lists
If your mailing lists can’t be easily defined in a single smart mailbox with automatic split into submailboxes, you can reverse the process below and create a folder with no conditions but check to include all submailboxes, then inside create a smart mailbox for each of your lists. I had to do that because some of my mailing lists require multiple conditions to display them separately. In other words, the "Submailbox for each unique value of From/Name" or anything similar was too simplistic in my case. Hopefully, it works for you. Tagging is indeed an overkill, although it works.

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. Yes, it makes sense. So I should be able to create a "Mailing List" tag and get other mailboxes to ignore mails that are so tagged. A little clumsy but workable, I guess.

I created a new Smart Mailbox called Newsletters.

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.

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.
