Sinister: (Hot) Mail handling

Miss Hottodir isn't the only one who has noticed Hotmail's curious ideas on 
what constitutes junk mail and what doesn't. 

In the OPTIONS screen under the heading of MAIL HANDLING there is an option to 
set up properties for MAILING LISTS. Once there you can enter 
sinister at missprint.org and your mail should be safe. 

Alternatively, if you're supremely and unabashedly nerdy like me, you can click 
on CUSTOM FILTERS and specify a rule stating that anything with the word 
SINISTER in the subject field should be sent to a folder named SINISTER, which 
also ensures that off-list replies to your missives don't get junked by 
mistake. 

Yours ever,

- M. 

P.S. Miss Hottodir, I'm a Norn Irish listee, and I sent a little something to 
your hotmail regarding your impending visit.
