Sounds like you are getting edible spam, Bill. What I get isn't edible. Once you do business online with some outfit you are on their mailing list forever, getting a 2-3x daily bombardment for every new IC chip or potatoe peeler that's been on their shelf long enough to need dusting. How do you separate the spam from the order confirmation and tracking notices from the same outfit? The sales folks take advantage of the fact that you have done business with them and can't handily write a rule to separate the business from the BS. Since I'm a long retired JOAT, my spam here is, shall we say, varigated. It is a PITA, but then the delete key is only about 4" from the + key on my keyboards and both work just fine. ____________________________________________________ > tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Web mail archive available at > https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@trinitydes > ktop.org .
