I hadn't seen a reply to my previous posting a couple of days ago, so I'm reposting it here. Would it be possible for respondees to send a copy of the response to my email address in addition to sending it to the list? I get the list as a digest and may not always see all responses.
Mike I'm trying to do a filter to get rid of messages sent in non-English characters since I can't read them. I set up a filter called non-English characters and then tried a rule which put � | � in the Strings box and filtered for Presence Anywhere and told it to put the email in my Spam mailbox. That didn't work. I then tried enclosing them in quotes but that didn't work. I then did it through the Alternatives tab and put the first character in the first set and the second character in the second set and it still didn't work. This last one filtered out two English messages which I examined looking at the full headers. Neither one of the messages filtered out contained either of the characters I was filtering for anywhere. Meanwhile several emails WITH those specific non-English characters were not filtered. I'm clearly doing something wrong but can't figure out what it is. Between the possibilities for using special characters in signal strings and using Regular Expressions, I find the Help on this rather confusing. If I use pipes for an "or" condition, should there or should there not be spaces before and after the characters I want to use for the filter? Should there be quotes around the characters I want to use for the filter? ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
