Salve Sencer,*!


First I thought your tipp would be to avoid >100 lines of quote by
using a webmailer....



To avoid that non gmail-users thing that mailing with gmail is more
comfortable/better than with a normal emailclient.... my tipp:

Well when you use a normal (good) MUA (Mail user agent) it will thread
your mails. When you have a filter, that all mails from this mailinglist
came into jut one openmoko-community mailinglist it feels not like mail-
flood anymore.

So with such a 
- separate mailbox 
- MUA (mail client) that organize mail as threads
I've no problem with "thread that just won't die".

And when you want to access the mails of this list flexible - I use
the non-GUI MUA mutt, together with GNU-Tool screen and ssh on a
virtual server I rent for 3 Euro/month (1GB space, 1 Domain, unlimited traffic)
Feel free to ask me in PM (private mail) about this - I dislike
spreading popularity of big companies services like skype,
hotmail/gmail (doing money with analysing mails and personal networks)

Greetings,
rob
