Though IMAP allows you to manage the same mail from multiple locations, if your filter with the client, then you'll need to duplicate all filters across all your clients to maintain filtering while you're managing new mail with the various clients. The more elegant solution is server side filtering. One set of filters and that's it. > Am I doing something wrong or am I right that the only way to filter > all the mail for more than one location is to do it on the server.

Instead of using the filter creation interface, you can create your own seive script. This is the URL the details the scripting language: http://www.cyrusoft.com/sieve/ Mulberry supports the ability to create filters using a GUI type interface and then generating a script from it. I then copy/paste the script in the FastMail script editing field. Works well. -- -= Allie Martin =- The Bat! v3.5.36 System Specs: http://specs.aimlink.name -=-=- Some minds should be cultivated, others plowed under... ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
