If you're using IMAP and are concerned about bandwidth usage, note that you can also do your filtering on Gmail directly, e.g. filter unimportant stuff into a Gmail folder which you can then *not* subscribe on TBird (so it won't be downloaded). Use the webmail interface to look at it once in a while. None of that can be done on POP. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
