getting gmail back into entourage - reward - 1 hostess twinkie

[Pete]

hi - i had a bug in my entourage for
several months and finally fixed it. now, i want to downlaod several
months worth of gmail messages to my entourage account. but when i hit
the send/receive mail button on entouage it only pulls in about 370
messages. (i probably get that in two days). my questions:
1 - what can i do to get ALL my old messages off gmail and into
entourage?
2 - is there any way to sort gmail so i can delete all the old
discussion group and newsletter emails that make up probably 80 percent

of my gmail inbox? i know i can delete incoming mail if it's spam as it

comes in. but these are emails that already sit in my gmail inbox.

many thanks and a gold star (or even a hostess twinkie) for anyone who
can help me with this. thanks

Pete

Make sure Gmail is configured to let you download all your mail. Log into
Gmail and go into Settings > Forwarding and POP > Enable POP for all mail
(even mail that's already been downloaded).

You may need to connect several times until you download everything. If so,
also enable the option to 'delete Gmail's copy.'

At the top of your inbox is a link that says Create a Filter. You can
experiment with that to filter out your mailing list mail and file/delete
it.
