I think the problem will have different solutions depending on who
is answering those emails.<br>
<br>
If we will have one person who will answer questions from humans,
send thank you emails to donors etc.<br>
<br>
Having emails for different things going to a same address, could
not be a problem, if you are filtering the different subject lines
to different queues in the ticket system.<br>
<br>
For instance all paypal donations has the same head line that you
could filter out into a different queue. <br>

<pre wrap="">Right now the donations alias is used for too many things. For example, whenever someone makes a Paypal donation, Paypal sends a note to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:donations@torproject.org">donations@torproject.org</a>. At the same time, when someone has a question about a donation, or is having trouble with our donate pages, they also send a note to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:donations@torproject.org">donations@torproject.org</a>. This results in a ridiculous amount of mail to this address, some important, and some not so much. Sorting helps, but for those of us on using pop, we’re actually downloading all of those machine-generated messages and then sorting and deleting them. A more elegant solution would be for humans asking us things to write to a different address than the one receiving the auto-generated messages. Then those of us only interested in the human-generated messages can be removed from the other ali
as.

Can you clarify? Machines make donations? Donations of machines?
Machines receive the email to that address?
Thanks,
