[R] [OT] gmail filter for R-help and R-devel lists

[Suresh Krishna]

i dont use gmail, but this method *may* run into problems if people are 
replying to a message and "r-help" is on the cc: line.

thunderbird has a "to: or cc:" option for this... is gmail's to: field a 
default for "to: or cc:" ?

-s.
