managing maillist messages

Some tips for managing messages from high volume maillists.

Clicking on a column header will sort all your messages by that field.

The First Column can be used to sort by a "Thread" or set of replies.

You can create folders, by right clicking on your inbox, or another folder you can create a new sub folder in which to keep messages.

You can create a "Message Filter" via the Tools menu. Create a new filter such that if the Subject is "[SEVA]" the message will be moved to the "SEVA" folder. Now all messages from that list will be moved into that folder, where you can go and read them.

Here's an example of a message filter and sorting by Threads.
