Carlos,
You will note that the to: field in the header has
"yellowdog-general@lists.yellowdoglinux.com".
What I did under netscape-mail, was to put a rule that any mail that had
"yellowdog-general" in the "To:"
field, put it in my seperate folder. This works ok for most, one or to slip
through.
Cheers,
Bernie.
