[LMB] Separating work from forum e-mails at work & home

[Terra]

Gmail now has both POP and IMAP email available on your free gmail 
account.  Much easier than getting a domain for a new email address :) I 
have about 6 gmail accounts for different purposes.

I also heavily filter my emails - every email list, every work interest 
and every friend has their own filter, sending each email to its own 
folder.  With an active list like this one I can display the emails 
grouped by subject line and then read each thread uninterrupted :)

Gmail & Thunderbird are my friends :)
