I solved this tonight after some intense work. I believe very strongly that the mysterious moving of emails was due to my own error. Evolution's name be cleared :) I consolidated the criteria for the windowmaker stuff (I had 4 rules just trying to force user list stuff into the user list area) into one filter. Then I did this for a few other ones, and for my 'spam killer' filters too (I have tons of either/or criteria in there for catching Korean/asian spam, which is 90% of the spam I get now). I almost am down to one filter for each major task now. Once this was done I started getting ALL wm-user emails in the right place, and other things went to the right place as well. Bug solved. I think. There had to be conflicting rules in there that I missed until I deleted them during consolidation. The jaw dropping part is Evolution LETS me make big filters like that... :-[ ] You guys and gals will rock the market with this - so when is Evolution Professional coming out?? :) Anyways, as for that "some messages did not get received" error, I am watching for the exact text again and will give it to you via private email (a screenshot, perhaps). It did happen while I had a mail settings config window open. One small question.. can you assign priority to filters? You know, like they do in Forte Agent (the newsreader)? I wouldn't consider it CRITICAL, in fact just a minor request really. But it might be sweeet to have. -- Steve _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
