Go to Account / Sorting Office / Selective Download / New... and try the "Kill" option under the Advanced tab. However, I don't use this, for two reasons: 1.) TB will download all headers to see if an Selective Download filter string is met, even if there is only one such filter, before downloading the messages. If you have a fast connection, this will be irrelevant for you though. 2.) A message "killed" on (i.e. deleted from) the server is gone. If there is a mistake in your filtering string, you will never know. Therefore, if you download all messages and put those meeting the filter criteria into a special folder which you can review at a later time, you might catch "false positives". -- Cheers, Thomas.
