I have used Dispatch Mail before, and it is a clunky interface. Here's a scenario that might help illustrate my interest in a feature like this: Let's say that today I get 300 messages total throughout the day from various mailing lists, etc. As is the case with far too many mailing lists, the signal to noise ratio is pretty lousy, but I remain subscribed to many of them for the real gems that come through fairly regularly. So I want to pop the messages, and thread them in TB, and then delete the lame threads while keeping the good ones. So I may see 80-100 threads and only want to keep 15-20 of them (or about 300 emails, and want to keep 45-70 of them). Viewing the mail in TB and then opening the Dispatch Mail window is not especially efficient IMO. I was just wondering if TB had a "better way" of doing it than that. :) Thanks, all, for the quick responses. -- Best regards, Jim mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60q FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
