Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 moderators: hi, blake here. does anyone know if it's possible to program a mail program to trash messages from certain group members? i know i can set up my program to trash, say, everything from " vegan chat " , which i obviously don't want to do (i could just unsub), but i'm not sure if i can set it up to trash, say, ron's messages. which is my intention. ron, i've sat at the table with you here for a few weeks, and the table just isn't big enough for me to move to the other end so i don't have to hear you. thanks, blake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Hi Blake I'm sorry about the upsets of the last few days. Ron is now on moderating, so none of his messages get through unless the moderators, Peter, Fraggle and I, feel that they should. Hopefully there will be no more annoyance.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 I saw the message that Ron's on moderated status, but I believe you still can, even though it shows the emails are coming from the group. You should still be able to block an individual the same way. I know I've done that with Gmail, someone from a group was sending emails to individuals off line and a bunch of us blocked him. And I noticed that the conversations of the regular group emails would show a deleted message and it was that individuals posts.

If your e-mail program has a filtering function, where you can have e-mails sent directly to different mailboxes, you can set it up so that messages " from " whoever you specify are sent directly to " trash " or " junk " or wherever (or you can make up a mailbox name, and trash everything in it regularly). I use a free version of Eudora, which has a wonderful filtering function. If you're on a lot of lists, it'd probably be worth installing it just to be able to filter.
