For something as powerful as TB and the filtering process, i find it funny (well .. err :-) that some, what seem to me, intuitive features are missing. The two biggest, off the top of my head, are Shared Filters and Single Creation of Filter for both IN and OUT Shared Filter Example: Spam is Spam is Spam .. Thanks to some lists I am on I get offers to increase the size of just about everything .. and them offers to reduce .. to me a single filter to cover all accounts (with optional switch to turn off) is in order. IN/OUT Filter Example: I have an email from [EMAIL PROTECTED] I want to have a folder for all correspondence to/from SpadeDetectiveAgency.com Go into create filters and at that point i have to say if I am creating and inni or outti. It would seem to me that it should be possible to define this in one place. If I receive from or send to .. put the mail here. As for what I am going to do .. for right now I will work on figuring out the format of the Filter record (why oh why do developers like to use char 0?) and once I feel comfortable with the format I will work on a) a *shared filter* creator .. for TB that would mean a copy samething everywhere b)way to define a filter for both in/out in one place Just some things to make my life easier <G> Thanks for the note .. -- Best regards, David mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using 'The Bat' 1.61 Using 'OS' Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
