You must be using e-mail as there is no message in your reply.

I am biased against e-mail for three reasons:

1. All too frequently the message sent is blank and the one posting never knows.

2.  Any edits to a post never get reposted, so those using e-mail are "in the dark".

3.  They do not get the advantage of scrolling up and down the responses to see what others said, reviewing what was said that did not work, or seeing what was not suggested.

Guess old fashoned, but don't see any advantage to having my e-mail clogged with dozens of posts each day.  I follow 4 forums.

Not so frequently anymore

Yes, but then again, one should read first what was written before sending it to the world (and sometimes it can be pretty to be in the dark...)

That is solved by hitting the links in the email to visit the forum or thread. Mail is just faster and the times I have to look at the history are far less to normal posts. I do find it more confusing with the general forums and I'm clueless where the moved discussions come from, like this thread that seems to be answered and is about an old version and a problem that has been discussed many times before.

Don't know what email you are using, I do have Apple mail but used to work with Entourage (the MS Outlook version for Mac) but both do have the option to create rules. I created a folder for each forum or other source that moves the mail automatically to the folders for the particular forums. Also have the option for Smart folders that creates a copy from predefined sources and puts it in those folders for better overview and searching...
