It may be, yes, depending on the particular users intentions.
Um, to be honest, I wasn't really making a distinction between
received and sent dates when I posted that. I was simply thinking of
a 'date' and because I tend to sort my mail via date received rather
than date sent (too many of my correspondents have dates wrongly set

Good advice, Rick, but why do you think "Date" is the same as "received
date" in this context? I rather weigh over to Date meaning the "sent

Rene;

I've two deleting filters: one for the directory Spam, the other for the
