String not found
Hi, I set up a rule to find those *@#$ Read this to the end junk. I put in the String 'TO THE END' without quotes. Then delete that one. One just came into my inbox. What's wrong? -- Rick -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

What's the location you used in your filter and in what location did the message state it? I don't know whether filter strings are case sensitive. -- Groetjes, Roelof -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Hi , I do not know what you mean by location. Unless you mean subject, text, etc. Set to text. RS I set up a rule to find those *@#$ Read this to the end junk.

Hello Rick, On Fri, 28 Dec 2001 13:52:22 -0600GMT (28-12-01, 20:52 +0100GMT, where I live), you wrote: RS I do not know what you mean by location. Unless you mean subject, RS text, etc. Set to text. Yep, that's what I meant. You're looking for 'TO THE END' in text, since the message wasn't deleted, there are several possibilities: 1) The filter is case sensitive (I don't know) 2) The filter has an additional condition that wasn't met 3) The message didn't contain 'to the end', but had an extra space or something between the words 4) The message had triggered another filter that didn't have the 'Continue processing with other filters' option set. 5) Probably I'm missing something. ;-) The fourth possibility can be checked by placing the bad message in another folder (preferably an empty one). Place your 'to the end' filter on top of all your incoming filters. Re-filter the folder (right mouse button, re-filter, use incoming filters). If the message gets deleted you know another filter was triggered in the first run too. The first possibility can be skipped, I tested it and my filter was triggered by both messages (both upper and lower case) -- Groetjes, Roelof -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
