ok i've made one and now you can too. If you delete key is too much work to hit... make an email filter! IT is really easy to do. Here is what i did. I use both Netscape and Pine 4.30 (yes, Unix). In these programs i set up a filter that says "if the word vanagon (non case sensitive), westy, syncro, weekender appears in the body of the letter, let the email live. Otherwise move it to the trash folder." That is it. Very easy. The key to this is making sure there are enough nouns to desribe list content but not spam content. So i'd leave out teenagers, young and chicks. Ok, back to my unix. matthew
