Hi Connie, you might like to try this? Creating Message Filters You can create and maintain message filters so that Messenger automatically matches criteria you set, including filing messages in a folder when they arrive. To create a filter that handles incoming messages: 1.In the Messenger window, choose Message Filters from the Edit menu. 2.In the Message Filters dialog box, click New. You see the Filter Rules dialog box, where you enter information necessary to define the filter. To edit a filter: Select the filter name and click Edit. To delete a filter: Select the filter name and click Delete. To turn a filter on or off: Click the dot to the right of the filter name to turn it on (checkmark), or click the checkmark to turn it off (dot). To change the order in which filters are applied: In the filter list, click a filter's name, and click the up or down arrow to move it. To log filter activity, which can help to debug filtering: Click the checkbox at Log Filter Use. To display the filter log: Click View log. If you have difficulty following all this, you might find it easier to follow from the help menu (where I got all this from). Select help from the help menu, click on Index and type filters in the search box.
