i just made this email exclusively for receiving mailinglists, i got overwhelmed by the amount of emails on my default mail. this's just a test message, feedback, if you can bother!
That seems a long way to go just to separate the mail.
sarcasm? i'm subscribed to eight mailinglists, when there're over 200 new email in your inbox daily, you miss out on the important ones, (and god help you if you are using gnome's mail-notifier) i just don't like to go through 900+ emails to get to the ones i want.
What mailer are you using that can not automatically sort messages into proper sub-folders?
gmail? it doesn't support folders, just that crippled feature called "labels", and my local mail client is evolution - *NOT* the best for handling mailinglists emails either. i'm using Claws-Mail for this mailinglist now, keeping evolution for personal mails. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I get somewhere between 250-750 emails every day and if there were no automated mail client sitting here sorting those babies out into their 200+ respective folders it would be less than good. (Kmail is good, Thunderbird is really good... how about Eudora for Linux...? )

Agreed. Popping his Gmail with Kmail (or whatever) would do it. He wouldn't even lose the ability to read it anywhere via a web browser, because you have the options of saving a copy in gmail (or not). I generally avoid using gmail's archiving feature with mailing lists that have archives of their own. Seems sort of abusive to Google's largess to fill their disks with mail just as easily found on the web. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Not at all. I meant it as a non-judgmental observation.

You can pop your Gmail with any Linux / Windows mail reader and use local sorting to put stuff into folders. Best of both worlds, because Gmail still filters the spam. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

This list is easy. Just delete anything from a thread over two days old. After two days everyone with something intellegent to say is done and it's just more list spam. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Did you just travel 2 days back in time to tell us THIS? ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
