So I assume this means that a single message will appear in multiple "folders", one for each label. Slightly weird, but Sup should handle dupes fine. > * I've created filters in Gmail for mailing lists which automatically > archive and label incoming mail.

There should be no problem with using Gmail to filter or classify mail in this manner. I use procmail to do exactly the same thing locally. One day Sup will use procmail to perform its own filtering, but that will be an added bonus and won't interfere with any per-source autoapplied labels. > * Furthermore, due to having to rebuild the index when I use the Gmail > web interface, should I never use the Gmail web interface? It's up to you. Sup doesn't play well with others. You can either run sup-sync --changed every time you use the web interface, or you can use Sup's superior interface and functionality exclusively. :) -- William
