If you have Microsoft Outlook you may do the following: With Outlook open, from the menu choose "Tools" & then "Rules Wizard" & click "New", Ensure that "Start creating a rule from a template" is selected, Highlight "Move new message from someone" & click "next", Under "Which condition(s) do you want to check?" make sure "with specific words in the message header" is selected, In the lower window on this same screen click on "specific words" in the sentence stating "Apply this rule after the message arrives with specific words in the message header move it to the specified folder", Type in "Paul Aparycki" & click add, Type in tawow@... & click add, then click "OK", In the same lower window as before click on "specified" in the sentence stating "Apply this rule after the message arrives with specific words in the message header move it to the specified folder", Choose the "Deleted Items" folder & click "OK", then click "Next", Click Next through two more windows, then click "Finish" You should now have an active rule that will automatically place into the deleted items folder any messages coming from this person either directly or through the list. One less asshole in the world to deal with. Please note that I did not say bad photographer, I said asshole. Problem solved! As an extra bonus you can create a rule to deal with threads that you do not want to weed through any longer. Just copy the subject line into the rule and like magic, those emails also get deleted without getting your blood pressure up. If you have different email software you might try looking in help under "Email Rules" & see if this might be possible in your tool. This really is related to Digital B&W Prints, really!!! I subscribe to this list for information on this subject. Threads get off on tirades that are hard to avoid. My blood pressure goes up. I go yell at my neighbors dog. I am so upset I cannot capture images with my pinhole, brownie, 35mm, 6x6, 4x5, 8x10, DLSR cameras .or to make prints. With this approach, ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! This has been a public service announcement. You may now resume your regularly scheduled threads.
