Hi ppl:

Thanks to all those that tried to help me. I just can't read that much
mail. But thanks to almost all responses (except the ironic one please
save us both some time next time)

Since most answers are like this one I'll use this as reply (sorry
folks I guess this is the most optimized way for me to answer all of
your mails ;) ) But I guess this is needs to be pointed out in order
to make the list better for every one.

Hello Waldo:

I do not have a GMail account so I do not know if this possible but I
filter this list by using the List-Id header in email.  All messages
try sent to the full-disclosure mailing list will have the List-Id
header set to: "An unmoderated mailing list for the discussion of
security issues <full-disclosure.lists.grok.org.uk>".  Of this I make
sure that "<full-disclosure.lists.grok.org.uk>" is in the header.
This makes it easier than filtering on to:, from:, or subject.  To
view headers for a mail, I would see if there is an option to view
all headers in your respective email client.  Of course if it is
webmail this could not be an option.

Hope this helps...

The gmail filters are:

From
To
Subject
Has the words
Doesn't Have

Yep stuff for the masses is simple. I bet I'm not the only one with
this simplicity problems ;(

I suggest that it would be good to make configurable on the list
server if you want  modified froms or not (so people that does not
likes that can be happy too). Would that be possible? I mean without
much trouble for the admins. I guess it would be a good feature for
the list that would help some ppl that have to deal with webmails and
similars. I guess one solution for my problems could be to use the
project at sourforge similar to yahoopops but for gmail (I don't
remeber the exact name). Maybe that solves things for my desktop but
then what if I'm not at my desktop. I receive hundreds of mails
everyday form several lists so leaving them unsorted in gmail is a no
no since that takes away your productivity. On the other side I cant
install or execute some software on every computer I land.

Thanks again to everyone
Regards
Waldo Alvarez



Thanks,

Hi Folks:

I'm just landed here recently because of an e-mail in bugtrack. You
know curiosity can take you to strange places. And jejej this list is
great. Non moderation simply makes it great. Now the problem is. I
sort mail arriving to my mailbox by category using filters. Now the
only common thing that applies to all mails here is the
[Full-disclosure] text in the subject. Everything else is a caos. The
from fields sometimes don't have the fulldisclosure address. And on
the other side I tried to sort using that text in the subject but it
doesn't work at all sometimes messages land in the Fulldiclosure
folder I have for this list but sometimes they land straigth into my
inbox. And there is a total caos having so much traffic this list.
Could anybody that solved this before gimme a hand telling me the
solution for this. In any case I think this list should work in that
sense like the rest of the lists.

Thanks in advance
Waldo Alvarez
