Hi Paul,

Is it possible for you to set the system to automagically delete any
mail not picked up by a particular node in the last 7 days ?

The reason for my asking is I have so much work on at the moment
that I will not be able to actively participate for a few months.
Rather than drop out altogether, I would like to simply grab some
mail when I have a few minutes to kill or simply need a break. I
have already dropped most of the conferences I was plugged into and
I now only have LOC_SYSOP, LOC_USER, AV_TECH and AUST_TRADING tagged
along with one other. I can browse through these echos easily as the
other one only has one message a week if that. Skimming AUST_TRADING
and only stopping on messages to ALL reduces that one to 5 a day at
most. Skipping over anything to/from Ron T Lewis, Russell Cocker, Ed
Livermore, or Rod Speed, reduces AVT to a few interesting ones and
LOC_USER, LOC_SYSOP aren't heavy areas. IOW, I feel that by doing
this, I could probably get through a weeks mail in 30 minutes and
enjoy it.

However, if I really don't have the time to call in, I dont want to
get 1 Meg of mail when I do. Have you got any ideas, or would it
just be easier for you if I stopped polling altogether and gave you
a call to re-establish a link when things slow down a bit in a few
months ?

Regards, Brenton
