Does AIL, er, AOL have kill files? The reporter trying valiantly to cover the story with some kind of objectivity was reduced to observing that some people just can't ignore any email - they have some kind of weird need to read every message. I guess this goes for messages even from those they want to ignore. In order to overcome this, do email kill files have to do their work silently, so the user can avoid stress about what they're missing? Richard

With procmail, you can associate arbitrary actions with a match, so no it would not have to be silent. Rick

You might pass this information on to CNN in Atlanta. It seemed to me the woman's problem was completely unnecessary give current cypherpunk techology _in_situ_. Their number is: (404) 827-1500 10:00 to 18:00 weekend hours- 08:00 to 21:00 week day hours. I didn't have to wait long to get a live one on the line. Rates are great on Saturday as well if you haven't gotten around to dumping AT&T as your carrier. -- PGP PUBLIC KEY via finger!

Yup, Jeff -- information on Procmail is the sort of late-breaking wide-interest news that CNN jumps at. Perry
