I didn't like the way I worded my reply...

Say you were going to use in your myfilter.txt:

MAILFROM -10 @columbiahouse.com

Then you also use:

SUBJECTCONTAINS 10 "free records"
BODYCONTAINS 10 "buy one get one free"

Then you have a WEIGHT15   DELETE

Now the email is:
Received from:  bob@columbia house
Subject: get four free records with the purchase of one

Buy one record and get one free after your initial purchase of five
records.

Because the negative value is -10, the actual assigned weight of this
email would be 10 plus what ever value your myfilter.txt has assigned.
Assuming it is a value of 5, this email would be deleted and not sent.
Personally, I consider this spam.

But if you use the same senario and this email looks like this:

Received from:  bob@columbia house
Subject: your free records

Your record purchase has been shipped on this day to this address.
Enjoy.

This email would have a weight of 5 and would go through.

Hope this is as confusing to you as it is to me...LOL
