Your solution really workd. I use the system as well. I run Netscape 7.0
and have my mail automatically sort into various mail folders. I
subscribe to numerous newsgroups and mailing lists and would be
overwhelmed if they came all mixed together. Some folders I will read
several times a day as time permits, others I will read once a week.
It's a good way to go.
