Yes, so have I.  But I am currently getting 95% or more of my personal email 
from or about Wally.  This has never happened before, and is causing me 
considerable inconvenience.  I have a fair number of filters set up that 
place all list email in separate folders.  But I do still have some personal 
emails.  

As I say, I have never in all the years I have been on this list had anything 
like this magnitude of an inconvenience.

And I agree that Wally just needs more confidence, and I have gone to 
considerable lengths to try and get him there.  I have even been told that I 
should be ashamed of myself for telling him to just grab the bull by the 
horns and do it.  (Whatever it is that time.)  But I just can't cope with the 
volume I am getting in my personal folder.

I will look again at whether I can word a filter so that it does not exclude 
personal emails from list members, which I have no desire to do, but does 
exclude copies of things that are also going to the list.  

I mostly filter via my email client.  The only type of filtering that I do in 
Gmail is null-filing.
