Hello Bat-techs,

I posted the following to the User discussion list but it's been recommended that I 
post my queries here.

I am attempting to troubleshoot a regular expression filter in Selective Download and 
I am wondering if I should see the
results in the Message Dispatcher window.  That is, if I have selected "Kill" for the 
filter action, those messages that
have been successfully filtered  will have their "Delete" box checked.  Can anyone 
tell me if this is indeed the case?

This morning I upgraded my software to "CE", thinking that perhaps my two-month-old 
copy was simply not working properly. 
Unfortunately, that did not help.

The "Subject" line I am attempting to filter appears as the 21st header line in the 
messages I am attempting to kill. 
Thus <none> appeared for the Subject in the Message  Dispatcher window until I 
increased the "Message body lines to
download with header" value in the Account Properties to 25.  I am wondering if I'm 
having difficulties because the
Selective Download filter only works on 20 (or fewer) header lines -- can anyone 
confirm whether or not this might be the
case?

Finally -- if anyone has successfully used regular expressions in their Selective 
Download filter(s), I would love to
discuss the bitter details in this forum.  I spent many, many hours yesterday reading 
the help and searching these and the
user archives and attempting to apply what little I was able to find there w.r.t. this 
issue, all without success.

I am using The Bat! version 2.02.3 CE under Windows 98SE.

I would be immensely grateful for any assistance with this!

And my thanks to all who have read this far.

Best regards,
 Constance                          mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
