By this do you mean "Continuing processing with other filters" on the
Options tab of the "Sorting Office" window? The reason I ask is really
one of trying to understand what you are doing. In other words maybe I
can do it better. From what I understand of TB's filters they really are
all in combination to a degree because precedent is set from the highest
to lowest on the list of filters created.

I probably should read the Spam threads in more detail. I just set up
Marck's SpamCop filter in "Active" & "Manual only" mode, so anything in
my Inbox is reviewed for Spam. If Spam Ctrl+Alt+S to generate message to
SpamCop. From some of the Spam threads I've read people create filters
on certain characters in the "subject" to filter to trash.  IIRC they
also use certain domain names to identify spam, and filter to trash.

I don't get much spam. This is probably because in newsgroups I use a
dead end email address, and because most of the mail lists that I belong
you are required to be a member and have rules against spam. Either
these are the reasons, or I'm just lucky.
