procmail does a good job at filtering, but some email programs do not do 
full header filtering. Additionally, the way discuss is set up, the from 
line is set to the sender of the message. It is possible to use bcc for the 
message recipient, which stymies some email clients, such as netscape, 
Outlook, Eudora, and Pegasus.
