The one that appears when you click on 'The Bat!' shortcut to start the Bat. This one typically has three panes to it. Not from a child window. Drag a message from the message list pane, typically at the upper left. It will be highlighted in blue then. You can scroll the folder tree first to minimize mouse movement.

Click any Tbudl message, and hold Shift Control F. The 'Create Mail Filter' window appears. Enter a descriptive name for it. Click on Sender to Uncheck it. At least for this example. And click on Recipient to Check it. Click on the button next to 'Move to folder'. Create a new folder for whatever kind of content you wanted. In this example, Tbudl messages. Click Ok. And now if your filter looks fine, click OK again. It will apply on next check mail. MB> I guess I'll have to take the plunge pretty soon and learn MB> to do filters. I am scared of losing mail.

If you were trying a manual filter, you could try just copying all your Inbox mail to an empty folder before refiltering. That way you aren't stuck if some errant filter you forgot about decided to apply now. -- Best regards, Adam ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
