 Good point. Corporate PYA text usually does read
 like a foreign (to me) language.

  Thanks. I guess this ends up being the most
  logical approach but I was looking for a wider
  net as I have so many filters at the moment.

  I even tried the if not in the AB & I couldn't
  get that functioning or maybe I just had it in
  the wrong place. I'm going to play around with
  that some more using '@' as the key & 'in my
  address book <all groups selected> at the bottom
  of my filters & see what happens.
