Is it just one kind of virus that eludes the automatic filtering and not the manual refiltering or are there more? TAHK> Anyknow how to solve this? Not without more info. Post the full filter and the headers of the messages that's problemetic. You can post the filter by selecting the filter in the sorting office and press <Ctrl><C> (don't use the copy button that does something else) and paste it with <Ctrl><V> in your message. You can view the message headers with <Ctrl><Shift><K> or by pressing F9. TAHK> And, is there ANY way to filter mail that does NOT have the same TAHK> email-address in "From:" and in "Return-Path:"? Getting to sort out TAHK> these mails would help A LOT in filtering spam and virus. I don't think that can be done. Such a filter wouldn't catch spam only though. Interactive mailinglists have that too. Whereas most virus mails have a matching from and reply-to. Come to think of it, most of the spam I receive also has a matching from and reply-to. -- Groetjes, Roelof ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
