Hi there,

A good idea but... I belong to around eight lists and I usually download
around 250 messages, we've just had a lot of new subscribers on one list
and a new list owner on another and even with the newbies putting all of
their surname interests in one message each the amount of mail has doubled.
If we all posted each name under separate headings here it'd triple, ok
for some but not us in the UK, we pay for our calls by the second and even
though they're local rate it can still run up the bill something terrible.

Just my thoughts on the subject, sure you'll get others.

Tracey.
