Probably using "sender is in the address book" : "if true" -> do not apply "if false" -> dump it I think I saw that question before. Don't tell me nobody thought of that (I didn't really follow this thread). If there's only one test in the action, you need to click on the "more criteriae" button (or whatever name in your version) to show the true/false options as in multiple tests lists. Anyway I use much more conservative mail actions, because even if you never forget to add new pals to your address book (or you won't get their replies), you loose the ability to get new ones, like after leaving a comment on somebody's website, or asking a question to some tech support (you can't be sure of the address they'll use). Neither can you know in advance what new addresses friends may use at work or on the road. And if you never get the messages in which they announce the change, your in box may soon become very quiet. I understand that's the purpose, but still... My "sender is in the address book" "if false" action paints them brown, and since most spam is already handled by other actions, this mostly distinguishes friends/colleagues from temporary interlocutors that I won't add to my address book. ---- VRic ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
