Create Filter- creates an unwanted folder
Hi all, The create filter option is creating a new folder in error, to repro follow the steps below: 1. RC on an email and select Create filter 2. When the Create Mail Filter window opens, note that the Move to box is marked and a folder selected. Untick Move to 3. Assign to a Colour group for instance 4. Hit OK At this point a new folder will be created, based on TB's autopopulation in the Move To box, despite being unticked. -- Warmest regards, Acheton Created using TheBat! 9.3.0.2 on Windows 10 Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I actually changed the 'Known' filter a bit to do what I want with this. Everyone I regularly communicate with is in my addressbook. I like to keep conversations with people in my AB together, so after all the filters that handle lists, newsletters and whatmore, I have the 'Known' filter at the bottom that splits out all remaining incoming mails to folders named after the full name of the person as it is registered in my AB. Because this list would get too large, I've also made it to create an intermediate level of folders based on the first letter. \\HyperCube Maurice\Bekenden\%SETPATTREGEXP("(.)")%REGEXPBLINDMATCH(%ABFROMNAME)%SUBPATT(1)\5C%ABFROMNAME Where 'HyperCube Maurice' is my account name, and 'Bekenden' is the mail folder under which I want these user-linked folders to be created. A similar filter exists in my outgoing filters list, which of course uses %ABTONAME to make outgoing mails to contacts in my AB also go to their personal folder. The folders are set to have a threaded so I can easily follow conversations there too, just like with mailing lists. -- Greetings, Maurice Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 The Bat! v3.99.24; ; AJS v18.59432; MyMacros 1.11a; Current version is 3.99.24 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Of course not, but that wasn't what you were asking. You asked about groups of filters. Or to say it differently: You merely asked whether you could create two groups of 45 filters each. What you're asking now is whether you can filter a lot of addresses each to their own folder with a single filter and that answer is: 'Yes' Create an AB group 'filter contacts' and add those 45 people to it. It doesn't matter whether you've got them in different AB group too. Create a filter that checks whether the sender belongs to 'filter contacts' Now you've got two choices, either you want all of them moved to the same folder or you want to move each message to a folder matching your contact. The first case is rather straightforward, the second case needs a macro. I tested it with a single address (didn't want to mess up my filtering system) I added a 'phone number' to an address book entry (I used the rather random letters lcs) and the action for my filter was to move the message \\Roelof\%ABFromPhone (With roelof being the account name) I re-filtered the folder and all messages from that contact were filtered to \\Roelof\lcs Apart from %ABFromPhone you can use any address book macro, like %ABFromE-mail, I just used the Phone entry, because I don't use that and I wouldn't like folder names with email addresses, but YMMV. Of course you'll still need two filters for this to function properly, one incoming filter and one outgoing filter, note that you'd need something like %ABToPhone for the outgoing filter.

In the accountlog (ctrl-shift-L) you can see what filter moved a message. > I open again the box Create mail filter: > In move filter i don't find Bernard but the recipient's name [EMAIL PROTECTED] What do you mean? the "Move to folder" field now defaults to the email address, or the filter name? Just tested it here, to set a filter like you did (ctrl-shift-F), leave the defaults and set the same filter again. A new folder will be created with the From-name on the first call, but the "Create Mail Filter" fields default to the same strings on the second call. -- shinE! http://www.thequod.de ICQ#152282665 GnuPG/PGP key: http://thequod.de/danielhahler.asc Using The Bat! v2.04.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 with POPFile 0.21.1 and avast Mar2004 (4.1.357).

Create filter
Hi , Create filter I wish to send messages from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to folder's name [Bernard], that is to say create a filter. With the previous version of The Bat I succeeded. Now, I select one message. The help says: go to: Messages/Specials//create filter. In the box Create mail filter, I write 'Bernard' in Move to folder I close the box. The filter don't work with new messages. I open again the box Create mail filter: In move filter i don't find Bernard but the recipient's name [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't understand. What's wrong? What do I do? -- Best regards Papy Current version is 2.04.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
