Or, instead of subscribing to the mailing lists, you could subscribe to the gmane newsgroup portal to these mailing lists. When you use usenet instead of mail, your client doesn't have to download all the messages, it can fetch just a *list* of message headers as you browse through a group. You'll only download a message body when you pick a message from the list. What your client actually does is down to configuration, you can configure it like a POP3 mail client, and make it drag in all messages. Usenet (newsgroup) clients tend to have better features for handling lots of messages, too. Easy way to ignore whole threads, easy ways to watch specific threads (perhaps highlighting them, or automatically fetching those messages while just listing the others), easy ways to ignore specific posters, etc. See: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general That's just two suggestions for your question. There's probably other ways to solve it, too. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
