If mailing lists clutter your inbox, than use a real mail
program that automaticaly sorts incoming mail to folders.

But are way behind the features a good mail client
provides to you. Scoring, filtering, fast access,
offline readable *and* replyable (good for those
people not having a flat rate), kill lists (some
topics just don't interest me, so they are set
to "read" automaticaly) etc pp.

Not to mention the ads and the two-screens long
legalese I have to sign prior to logging in.
