Speaking of loops on my show, next week's Vinyl Starter, instead of being a dinosaur disk, will be new vinyl from Fear Falls Burning, the alter ego of vidnaObmana. I think that you will clearly hear some serious looping going on. >> On 12/6/06, *Sean Onion* <sean@zwieble.com <mailto:sean@zwieble.com>> >> wrote: >> The mystery messages have the subject "Galactic Travels Playlist >> #504 for November 23, 2006" and were sent from Bill Fox. >> >> To clarify, I don't have a problem with my filters, just the >> format of >> the original message header.

(2) I send playlists to the "EM Playlist Distribution" list as blind copies (Bcc:) in order to preserve individuals' identities, which means that Loopers is not in the To: field. Thunderbird ought to help you filter stuff well enough for the results you desire. To aid that, I *always* format the Subject: field of my playlists to allow filtering in case a Loopers member wants to can my stuff. The Subject: field ALWAYS starts out: "Galactic Travels Playlist for" with the rest varying according to the date and show number. Plus, there should be plenty of non-changing content in the playlists to help you filter them out. Cheers, Bill
