Perhaps not the answer you want, but have you considered reading the mailing lists through a news gateway like gmane? (http://gmane.org) They carry something like 6000 lists currently, and as far as I can see they are willing to add any list, including automatic ones like cvs. As long as the list admin is happy with it, anyway. That would probably take care of most of the 2000+ messages, nntp would be (I guess) faster than imap, and you don't have to worry about expiry. And with the right client (gnus :-) you can mix imap/nntp folder order as you like. Just an idea. -- Joachim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
