Re: OT: how to easily identify posts coming from this list



From your email I see that you are using Outlook Express version 6. Same program I use. It is very easy to create a "Message Rule" that will transfer a folder you create ie. "Redhat". "Check the manual"

my email browser isn't that sophisticated. i only have 2 filter categories,
spam and non-spam. all non-spam go to the inbox. however a few spam mails
still slip through and find their way to the inbox. unnecessary eye strain
from doing an occular inspection of a long list can be avoided through easy
identification of legitimate non-spam mails.

let's say a program can be written to insert that identifying mark (eg RHIL)
infront of the subject line, isn't it more efficient that this is done at
the server side where it is processed just once rather than at the client
side where the effort is duplicated several times?

thanks
