When the webmail doesn’t do what I want, I fall back on mutt on the Linux command line prompt.
It is an immensely strong and stable text based mail client, but – beyond the basics – has a steep learning curve.
In fact it is so stable, that the CVS repository rarely gets commits
So below a few notes that I used to clean up truckloads of mail.
For me the most powerful combination of steps is this:
Once you have tagged the desired messages, you can use thetag-prefixoperator, which is the;(semicolon) key by default. When thetag-prefixoperator is used, the next operation will be applied to all tagged messages if that operation can be used in that manner.
A few more details are below. Read the rest of this entry »

log4net configuration can be a tad intimidating at first.
When you do not want to log all levels, and the levels you want to log are not noncontinuous, then you can combine the LevelMatchFilter with a DenyAllFilter.
The filter classes in the log4net do not provide much help on this, but the filters section in the log4net manual is better.
This StackOverflow question has a very nice answer explaining it: Discarding several log levels within a range with log4net.
