Set Up a Mail Folder for Mailing Lists

SUMMARY: Filter your mailing list e-mails to a separate folder.

Here is a suggestion. Set up a folder in your mail program to store mailing list introductory messages - you know, the messages you receive after joining mailing lists that tell you how to unsubscribe, contact the list administrator, etc. You may not need to unsubscribe today, but eventually you may need to leave the list, if only for a brief period of time such as a vacation (of course, you'll never want to leave the MalekTips e-mail list - grin). Keeping the information together will prove quite handy.
