good point Jacob,
Each email is specifically titled with [BVARC] including the brackes...
this is specifically for folks to sort or filter [BVARC] into a folderof its own.. Most listservers do this...
this way you can go read the bvarc stuff whenyour in the mood andit will not clutter your inbox..

Hello Everyone,
Because of the large amount of emails on this reflector, I just wanted to share how I avoid having my main inbox spammed. The website describes how to do this in outlook but doing this in gmail is not exactly intuitive. In gmail there is something called "Labels", labels can essentially be used as folders to sort certain emails. This allowed me to place all incoming BVARC emails into a folder separate from my main inbox so I can go back and read at my leisure. ,
Here's how to do it in Gmail:
1: Click the + next to Labels on the right side and name it. I named mine BVARC
2: Next, type BVARC in the main search bar for Gmail and click the Settings button to the right of the x.
3: Next, click Create Filter at the bottom.
4: Next, check "Apply to the label:" and select the label you created in step 1. And if you want to keep the emails out of your main inbox, check "Skip the Inbox (Archive it)". This will place the emails into the label folder but hide them in your main inbox. Then click "Create Filter"
All emails containing "BVARC" will now go to the label (folder) instead of your main inbox. When a new email comes in, you'll see a notification next to the label.
Hope this helps somebody.
