Due to the large amount of email I receive, I have been forced to stop accepting mail at my old email addresses. Those two addresses get around one thousand emails per day, making them impossible to use. If you have sent an email to either of those two addresses and I have not responded, I apologize but you will need to contact me again. I'm not giving out my new address, so if you wish to contact me you must do it via the "email user" form here on the forums, until our new site is up and running. Sorry for the inconvenience...I just want to let you all know in case you need to contact me.

About half consisted of automated responses or "Undeliverable Mail" errors from new post notifications sent out to people. The other half consisted of spam. About 1 in every 100 messages was a "real" email.

Ouch!

Do you use Outlook for your mail? I do, and I find its "Rules" function to be excellent. I.e. "If the message has <this condition> <do this to it>"

I get over 200 e-mails a day, of which I generally need to read 15. I've got the rules tuned so that I can find those 15 very quickly.
 
Yes, I did use the "rules", and they worked pretty good, but I still had to weed through most of the mail.

1. A road or passage having no exit; a cul-de-sac.
2. A situation that is so difficult that no progress can be made; a deadlock or a stalemate: reached an impasse in the negotiations.

Hmmm.
