That works as long as some discussion does not start up on the [Announcement] tag. Or, if people can remember to be diligent, before starting discussion they can remove the [Announcement] tag.
By the way, I already filter out a small set of e-mails (from the "from:" tag) because I don't want to miss anything they say. These are filtered merely by marking them with flag (Mac mail). This set is somewhat obvious and includes: Wayne, Eric, and about a dozen others whose technical expertise & knowledge is far more than mine (thus, reading their messages puts me in learning mode most of the time). 73, phil, K7PEH > On Jan 21, 2015, at 10:26 AM, David Cole <[email protected]> wrote: > > That would work for me...
