I concur. Gmail does server-side filtering and labelling, not client-side. When I go into my gmail settings, I can see a list of filters, one of which is "Matches: list:(gnucash-user@gnucash.org)/Do this: apply label 'gnucash/gnucash-user" and all my gnucash-user email is labelled as a gnucash-user email. Google Inbox is a different front-end for the same mail back-end, and it uses (again, serverside) a Bayesian categorizer to place emails in user-definable "bundles", such as "gnucash". It does this behind the scenes by adding a gmail label to the mail. Which means that when I look at this email in gmail, I'll see it listed as "gnucash gnucash/gnucash-user [GNC] Re: GNC Addition of Mailing List Subject Prefix", which is getting a bit ridiculous. > I also think this idea is just adding clutter. > > Colin > _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
