Filtering Back Dated Watchlist Notifications

Sometimes I get hundreds of mails for caches on my watchlist every day because:

 

- a cacher decides to use a TB or geocoin as a personal TB after he has found some 100 cache and logs the TB in and out each of this caches

 

- a team splits up, every member creates a personal account and logs all the caches they has found together

 

- the children are interested in their own account and log all the caches they have found together with their parents

 

I have set up a filter in my email programm that moves all "posted a note" logs into a seperate folder. That keeps the amount of mails in the inbox lower but does not help if someone logs caches that he has found some months ago.

 

Suggestion:

 

If a log is dated back for example 1 month, it is marked with [OLDLOG] instead of [LOG]. This makes it easy to seperate back dated logs from actual logs.

It happens every 2 or 4 weeks, depending of how many caches and TBs you have on your watchlist.

Deleting all Mails is possible but this will also erase all actual (interesting) logs from this cacher.

I meant as a one-time event.

 

[LOG]NewTeamName found Old Cache 1

[LOG]NewTeamName found Old Cache 2

 

Hmm, maybe I can filter out and delete all new emails that have [LOG] and NewTeamName! Cool, now I don't have to look at them.

 

Once or twice a month isn't that big of a deal.
