RE: Mario Rups suggestion for reducing e-mail clutter by changing settings. I believe you'll probably want to switch your settings to "digest" rather than index. Digest gives you a single message containing a simple table of contents and the text of all messages. Generally you can retrieve the message, look at the table of contents, and decide if anything looks interesting. I say generally both because there are occasional gems hidden in what seem from the header to be dog biscuits and because sometimes folks don't use descriptive message headers. The command is usually execeuted by sending the message set museum-l digest with no subject header line to the listserver managing the list (not to the list itself). Hope this helps.
