IF does not support string comparisons.

What you can do is add a step that generates a return code based on the symbol
value and use that return code in an IF statement.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
