Gnus has a very flexible "scoring system" and regex matching system to sort mail automatically. This means you can match patterns on the mail headers and -- based on the matching results -- sort them into different mail folders automatically. So, spam mails go to the "spam" folder. Important mails (from a few e-mail addresses that you specify) go to an "important" folder. Mails from colleagues goes to the "company" folder. E-mails from your family members goes to the "family" folder, etc. And you can of course check the important folders first, deferring the less important folders to when you have spare time. Mails in the spam folder can be ignored and auto-expired. So, using Gnus and customizing it properly help you save time. --=20 Lee Sau Dan =A7=F5=A6u=B4=B0 ~= {@nJX6X~} E-mail: danlee@informatik.uni-freiburg.de Home page: http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~danlee
