You can achieve that by creating/using your own local e-mail filters (procmail, sieve, embedded MUA filtering...), and then delete/send to trash messages that match your rules *but* you'll lose many posts (this one, for instance) ;-( What I do in such case is using the NNTP interface (Gmane¹) for both, reading and posting, which alleviates me from storing a heap of e-mails and also managing tons of filters ;-) P.S. Most of Debian mailing lists do not require a subscription. ¹http://gmane.org/ Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
