It does search the headers but not as a single entity but each individual element, e.g. the From line, the Subject: line, etc. You can call your filter "header" but you must search a specific line in the header. For example I had a filter that checked the (non-standard) X-From_ line. Can you post an example of the header? > Anyway I wanted to give Mozilla 1.0 a try and installed it.
