hi Anne
how you do that is not incorrect, *smiles* however, have you ever looked at
the rest of the conditions?
you can arrow up and down and select any conditions with the spacebar.
I think at times although it can be helpful to use the first letter
navigation, people tend to not see what else is around.
this is in no way a criticism of you though. just in general my opinions.
*smiles*
when I set a message rule, I dot use first letter navigation, I arrow to the
items. so in the second column of items are all your conditions. you can
arrow down to them, or use first letter navigation. to select any
conditions hit space bar and continue down on to the below item.
depending on which order you select the item will depend which rule is
activated first.
hope this helps
Elaine

Hi Elaine,
Unsure how to compound the rule. I have a rule to check words in subject
so how do I add another condition?
What I did was alt+t, r, enter on mail, add check if body of message
contains ...
and then I move it to same folder. Is this how AI do it? I also give
rule a unique name.
Thanks,
Ann

hi Ann
if you want a message rule for the jaws users list, but the words are not
always in the subject line, try other rules such as if the same words are
in the body of the email.
I've done this before and it works.
you can have more than one rules working on one email.
so for example, the rule, for subject lines, if those words are not found
in the subject lines you could specify that the following rule apply
next, say the same words but in the body of the email.
that then will force the second rule to apply if those words are in the
body of the email aposed to the subject line.
if those words are not in either the email or subject lines, that is when
the email will default to your in box.
sometimes message rules can be a pain to set.
the message rules apply in what ever order you have placed them to begin
with.
HTH

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Message rules in OE with GMail
Hi all,
I sent a new email regarding Brighthouse and it came into my in box. My
message rule in OE is to move to folder if subject contains JawsUsers;
however, this rule was defined when I used BellSouth email account.
Unsure if this would mattter.
The subject line did not contain JawsUsers. Is this because I composed
a new email? Or does this have to do with GMail account?
