Is it just me or has gMail been adding features out the wazoo lately? latest one: check your email from joor phone.. which isn't all that spectacular but it's just one of many new ones.

just read thru the gmail tips and i got to the blackbelt section before i saw something i didnt know about:

Filter your email with personalized email addresses.

You actually get more address variations than just "yourusername@gmail.com" all of which get delivered to you. You can put a plus ("+") sign and any combination of words or numbers after your name like changing hikingfan@gmail.com to hikingfan+mailinglists@gmail.com or hikingfan+junk@gmail.com. Then you can easily add a filter to label and/or archive messages sent to the variations.

like mat.t.win.ter@g will still get to me

or the more practical matt.winter@g

I'm a big fan of Green Belt #9: Never forget an attachment again.

I've done that more times than I can remember.
