Andy,
Thanks for all your great efforts. I would choose option 3 also.
Please don't clutter up the subject line because some people are just too 
lazy to make a 'pianotech' mailbox and filter their messages.

I subscribe to many lists and they each have their own mailbox and the 
posts are sent immediately to their respective designations.
Within each mailbox you have the option to sort the posts by date, topic, 
sender, size.
