Thanks Bill, I might very well - although the Mail Action is using VRic's 
script beautifully now.

However, I feel the need to explain something further while I have a 
chance - it might be of interest.  

It may have sounded preposterous that I had not realized that the 
following would have made all the difference.
 
> instead of putting 
>''*SPAM*' into the "subject contains" criteria I simply put the word 
>'SPAM', without the stars.

The messages tagged by my ISP do have stars on either side of the word 
SPAM and I thought, by including the stars I would differentiate spam 
tagged mail from legitimate mail that was about spam and therefore had 
the word spam in the subject line.

The reason the stars complicated matters is that the star font that 
Emailer uses when I press the "star" key (Shift 8), is different than the 
star font Emailer uses in the tagged spam mail's subject line. Odd. I 
guess Emailer confused itself.
