Re: [Digital BW] For Threads that go Off Topic

Free speech my friend is obviously something with which you do not agree.

What you do appear to subscribe to is the tyrany of the mob concept.

Shame on you sir for your less than democratic approach to life.

Now if you really wish to lower your blood pressure, may I recomend a twelve 
week course of daily aerobic exercise , which, by the way, will also 
increase the quantity of endorphine's in the brain and thus should improve 
your feel-good factor.

Subject: [Digital BW] For Threads that go Off Topic


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.
