Re: [hypermail] All messages with the same Subject will be put in one file..

Thanks.. I will try to look through this.. But do you think this feature might be good for everyone...

I wanted to have this feature so that i can document my research... So all the papers that i read for a particular topic ("VPN" say) will be listed on a single page...

Thanks
