Januk,
Regarding your message dated: 17 September 2000...
JA> Just have your shutdown request message take the form:
JA> Subject: Mark Says Exit
JA> Body: Password: 102030405
JA> Then make the main rule of the filter look like:
JA> String Location Presence
JA> Mark Says Exit Subject Yes
JA> Password: 102030405 Text Yes
JA> Mark Sender Yes
JA> The password would help reduce the chance that some other Mark could
JA> send you a message with the word exit in the subject and trigger your
JA> filter.
Aha! I was jumping in too deeply then by thinking about trying to
implement something which contained some extra security to perhaps
hide the password or similar. I haven't a clue how I'd do that right
now by the way! (And I'm tired - all together now...)
Yep, the above set of rules would be the way to go to avoid irritating
mistakes. Thanks for explaining/expanding on the original point.
Best wishes,
Mark.
