Can't help this time, but suggest in future, you subscribe to "digest" mode. Then you can quickly eliminate, or read a day's worth of messages in a very short period of time. Big advantage also in that one can also follow the threads much more easily. Or set the list to "digest" mode when you go on vacation.

Biggest disadvantage is that you do not receive individual messages as soon as they are sent and may be a little late in commenting on them.
