[Tfug] traffic++

[Brian Masur]

It's fair that i reply here before I reply to another address.  I'm using 
snotmail for my tfug subscription, which is the main reason I'm considering 
a transfer.  I think hotmail and M$ in general is a failed everything.  So, 
Goodbye, snotmail.  Look for my real address(es) in the future.
I've used Mutt plenty, don't think it will help my problem of overabundance 
of tfug stuff.

Emacs?  After 12 years of linuxing-it-up, still no idea...  And, still no 
reason to rule it out.  Emacs?

I haven't thought of any filtering situations.
I'm inquisitive, I can't filter by something I don't know of.
