You're sure you need these criteria?
Russell, correct me if I am wrong, but it seems to me that in wanting to delete messages missing those 3 headers, you are probably trying to delete the "dummy" message that bursting the digest often creates with certain kinds of digests. Some lists, for instance, put a summary of topics at the top that ends up in a "message" with no To, From, or Subject headers because there were none. Is that the case here? Is it really necessary to check for all three headers, then? Perhaps if To and From are both missing, that's enough. This does not solve the puzzle of why the rule isn't executing (or is being overridden), I realize, but I am attempting just to understand why you want the criteria, as Paul asked. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
