I'm afraid the biggest difficulty with the sender/subject line issue for me is that there are many "senders" I want to place in the SHOE system's identified "unsubscribe from sender" link. I cannot do this however without then unsubscribing from SHOE. I would like, as an alternative, to employ a kill file, but my filters operate on the sender, and I think it unfair to Bert to automatically toss his messages just because he is the named sender of obsessed and interminable non-HE postings. It is a conundrum.
