This is something I've seen discussed _very_ actively once or twice, on the ClassicCmp.org maillist. One problem that I've seen, with adding something like DEB at the beginning of the subject line, is a subject that turns into: Subject: RE: [DEB] RE: [DEB] RE: [DEB] RE: [DEB] RE: [DEB] How do I... So I just have Netscape here filter messages by what's in the TO: or CC: field, and send them to seperate folders. The filter for this is... if the To: or CC: field contain lists.debian.org, move it to the Debian folder. Works just dandy. -- ---Dave Woyciesjes ---ICQ# 905818 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
