Dear David, @19-Sep-2004, 20:45 David Elliott [DE] in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck:
DE> I have top level filters that will catch all messages and also
DE> have continue filtering matched.
Oh. That's not the best way to do it. At all.
DE> Lets go back to the filters.
DE> Frends ...............:- Top level, match all, continue filtering
DE> Marck D Pearlstone ..:- 2nd Level, match to Marck as sender, move to 'Marck'
DE> Lists ................:- Top level, match all, continue filtering
DE> TB UDL ..............:- 2nd Level, match to TBUDL as recipient, move to 'UDL'
DE> SPAM .................:- Top level, match all, continue filtering
When I tried that, it ended up duplicating messages, placing copies in
folders for every rule that matched. Results are certainly
unpredictable.
I have this structure and it works right every time:
Lists.. ............ : top level, match address group "lists"
TB lists : 2nd level, Match Reply header thebat.dutaint.com
TBUDL : 3rd level, Match Reply header, move to folder
TBBETA : 3rd level, Match Reply header, move to folder
... : 3rd level, Match Reply header, move to folder
Specific List 1 : 2nd level, Match as Reply header, move to folder
Specific List 2 : 2nd level, Match as Reply header, move to folder
Specific List 3 : 2nd level, Match as Reply header, move to folder
Specific List 4 : 2nd level, Match as Reply header, move to folder
Friends ............ : top level, match address group "friends"
Specific Friend 1 : 2nd level, Match as sender, move to folder
Specific Friend 2 : 2nd level, Match as sender, move to folder
Specific Friend 3 : 2nd level, Match as sender, move to folder
End stop : 2nd level, move to Friends container folder
DE> So I have been lead to believe that the last move will be the
DE> action that is carried out.
All applicable actions will be carried out. And TB is left confused.
DE> So the message should end up in UDL not Marck.
I think there's no guarantee about where messages will end up nor how
many of them :-).
