I classify the mails and tell them "you may get in" and "you may not get in". I don't worry about the whole city (world email traffic) either, only about those people who get by and want to join the party (mails that are somehow addressed directly to me). Whats so charming is that my colleague the Bayes filter learns which mails I accept, and which not, so I don't have to worry myself. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) Each waking day is a stage dominated for good or ill, comedy, farce, or tragedy, by a dramatis personae, the `self, and so it will be until the curtain drops. -- Sir Charles Sherrington ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
