I really need to put server filters into the mail...

The one downside to going away is the mail backlog when you return. 1025 mail messages, in large part mailing list mail. I really ought to filter the less-interesting mailing lists with server-side rules, rather than client side rules. (Eudora has a nice feature of opening up any mailbox that has new mail filtered into it, which is how I keep track of what pending list mail I need to read) Posted by Dan at February 12, 2003 02:12 PM | TrackBack (0)

I recently reached what I consider IMAP/procmail heaven, and my email processing time has been cut in half. The downside though is that with the mailing lists not coming into my inbox I tend to lose track of them easier, but on the flip side I spend more time on 'important' things.
