I am using Gmail to receive my LP email. Gmail has very weak email
filtering capabilities compared to most email clients, and AFAICT it is
not possible to set up a Gmail filter to filter mail coming in from LP.
This is because LP sends emails with a From: header with the actual
email address of the person sending the email, and a Reply-to: with an
LP email address. In Gmail, it is not possible to filter emails on the
Reply-to: header.
Typically mailing lists only do this if they prefix the subject of
emails with an identifier in brackets, e.g. [LP]. I propose adding an
option to user's LP profiles that gives them the choice of having an
[LP] tag prefixed to email subject lines, or else have LP send emails
From: an LP email address. I would prefer tagging subject lines, but
either of these solutions would work.
