    You assume I'm "unwilling" to filter my e-mail?  I filter it in a wide 
variety of ways.  Do not assume I'm stupid or that you know anything about 
me, my business or my reasons for doing things the way I do them, then 
chastise me on-list for your erroneous assumptions.
    This is why I very rarely post to this list.  I am now going back to 
"lurk" mode.
