It seems to me that it is not the brackets that is the problem. It is choosing
*both* brackets and quotes - like in "Jannik Lindquist"
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> . For some reason TB will not allow this - even
though this is the form of the string proposed for "Sender" when creating filter
for incoming messages. In my - limited - experience the proposed string is a
kind of choice: "Do you want this or that?". If you delete one of the parts -
the quote part or the brackets-part - the filter will work. If you leave it as
it is, it won't.
I believe someone reasonably recently (!) explained why this is so on one of the
lists.
