Another choice is if your ISP allows you to set up multiple email addresses have all the CR emails go to a special email address. Then you can look at that email when you want and not have the many CR emails take over your main mail box.
I personally do a search on my new mail to isolate the CR emails - review them for any interest I may have, then delete the others. Then go on to read my regular mail. But I may switch to one of the other methods above or below in the future. I'm still in evaluation mode.

I too was once overwhelmed by the sheer number of posts. Lord knows I am
one of the most enthusiastic of list members and could not stand the thought
of being without it. Let me suggest this to you all...If you like the list
(and if you don't by all means realize you are on the wrong list and get
off) try the Digest version of it. You will get it a few hours later and
many for sale items will be gone by the time you respond, but the Digest
lumps many posts into one manageable post that has a table of contents at
the top which you can scan to see what items are of interest. It is
deletable with a single click when you are done.
Please do not respond to the entire Digest, just the individual posts...this
is how we get those damnable huge mailings with nearly no new content!
We really want to keep interested members and if the list is of value to
you, this may be of some help...you can always remove yourself later if it
does not...nothing ventured, nothing gained.
