However, it would be quite easy to write a recipe that looks for a set of
specific keywords you may be interested in, and modifying the subject of
those messages to have some other [INTERESTING] marker. This of course
means maintaining a list of keywords. Maybe even rank them so you can see
*how* interesting the message is. mmh. never really thought I needed
something like that, but the ranking idea makes me think I do :)

Another approach would be to make a set of words you are not interested
in, and exclude messages conting them, or some number of them (kill file
concept I guess).

Both methods run the risk of missing things you may have wanted to read.
