Hey Jeremy, thanks for that! I have one account (not the one that
I use for listserves) that I use Pine for, and when I first got to that
system procmail didn't work right for me, so I never got arount to
setting up filters. Now you draw my attention to the fact that Pine
can do its own filter setup -- Yeah, here it is at:

... for example. That'll be very helpful.

I do all my listserv reading on Thunderbird using my Cox account,
and TBird's filters do a most excellent job. However, there has been
some confusion because TBird has a bug regarding sharing of
the same folders between Windows and Linux -- the filters set up on
one system sometimes fail on the other system. Guess that'll come out
in the wash.

Thanks again,

Vic
