Email man to the rescue!
Go get Eudora Pro email software. It has filters that organize your mail
for you. I have a folder for the mg list and any message that has "mgs" in
the header anywhere is automatically put into my MGs folder. I have another
filter for messages that come from my girlfriend, but I won't divulge here
what the actions are for her messages ;>. You can set up these filters to
do anything you like, so there is no burden on this list and Eudora handles
it all. Note: This feature is not available in the Light freeware version
of the software.
OK, unabashed admission -- I am associated with Eudora. However, even if I
weren't, I'd use it anyway. Besides, everyone on the Eudora team loves the
pictures of my MGs, so there!
Cheers,
Andy
