In addition: "How to combine AND and OR operators in a single filter; If you want to create a filter with a condition like this: account is work account AND (sender is John OR sender is Mark) you can create an address book group or folder that contains John and Mark, then create a filter like this: [account] [is] [work account] [from] [is in group] [friends] execute if [all conditions are met] Updated by PowerMail engineering on 12/06/2003" (<http://faq.ctmdev.com/index.php?TOPIC_ID=17>) In case of names A,B,C,D and contents E,F,G,H it makes 4 filters only. ;-)
