Filtering by either the List-Id header contains "<mailop.mailop.org>" or a Received header contains "for mailop@mailop.org" are both excellent ways to sort messages with near duplicate bodies into multiple folders. In my particular use case, I almost always want a message that includes me in the To or CC fields to stay in my inbox while its "duplicate" is sorted to the appropriate folder. It's also important to note that the messages received via a list are never full duplicates. At minimum, the headers are different (and we call all agree that there is important information here). Sometimes, the original contains html, rich text, or attachments that are removed by the list software. Sometimes, the list appends a footer.

Shouldn't we as mail users decide what is important or annoying to us? I find it a bummer the Google chooses to discard unique mail. - - Mitchell _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
