mailbox where it would drown my other, more important, mail.

I have a filter that runs on newly-received mail and throws any
containing "[slim]" into a separate folder. I am curious if there is
something about your setup that prevents this approach?

Indeed I could use a filter, but when presenting post as
converstations (thunderbird) other mail would be presented as
conversations too. Its a per program setting. Therefore and amongst
other things (back-up, reability etc.) I am using Gmail for this sort
of things.

I don't want to argue against your GMail approach, but let me add that
the view setting is per program in Outlook Express only. In Thunderbird
it's a per folder setting.

I've checked that and... yes, you're right. Thanks. :-)
