I filter on [SLE] in the subject (and similar for amd64 list). Will that change? Yes it will change to [opensuse].
Thank you.
Dont filter on the subject. Use the X-Mailinglist/Mailing-List header. Thats what they are there for.
I appreciate the advice. I filter on the subject because the X-Mailinglist list header is not present when people make private replies, which they frequently do.
Sorry to question your response, but if someone makes a private reply then it shouldn't go into this forum and not be replied to and so accidentally appear in this forum. A private message should remain private. In fact one of the things which has been 'plaguing' me is that a private message sent as a response to a message in this forum has been ending up here rather than in my private mail box (because it would invariably have [SLE] in the Subject field). A few minutes ago I discovered an option in Thunderbird which I didn't know existed ('cause I never looked closely :-) ) and that is that any field in the Header can be added to the Message Filter and now I can filter on X-Mailinglist rather than on any of the other, normal, 'default' fields.
