Gmail does have filters, and as an alternative to using a different
email address, you can modify the address you give out. For instance,
mail sent to ilovepigs+cows@xxxxxxxxx, ilovepigs@xxxxxxxxx, and
i.love.pigs@xxxxxxxxx will all reach the same person's inbox. If you so
wish, you can then filter the mail based on which address it was sent
to. Pretty cool, eh?
While this makes sense if this address appears in the "To" field, or
the like, how does it help for mailing lists like ILUGC, where the
address doesn't appear in the main headers? I've not been able to find
this out. Could you please clarify this?
Of course, I can easily filter out mails to ILUGC and the like using
ordinary GMail filters, so I guess it shouldn't matter. But I'd still
like to know.
Thanks.
Kumar
