I filter list messages into their own folder, and view them in threads (view--sort by--threaded in newish versions of Thunderbird, for example). That way it's a lot easier to find subjects that interest you, and to ignore subjects that annoy you. Being able to truly ignore annoying messages is very satisfying. Now that I'm using gmail for list mail, everything is automatically sorted into "conversations," which is inferior to real threading, but adequate. Let me know if you want a gmail "invitation" and I'll send you one. Ditto for anyone else (up to my limit of 6!). --Matt
