Suppose I want to filter this whole thread. I go to your first message. It's message-id is: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Now I'll go to the sorting office and create an incoming filter that triggers on that message-id (only the message-id itself, not the header) in the kludges (that's TB-talk for headers) Since TB supports threading, my reply included these header: | References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> so my message includes the filtered message-id, Your answer had this header: | References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> so it triggers our filter again. This message includes: | References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> so you'll see that every new message includes all previous message-id's. I hope it's clear to you.

Note that if you want the messages to be processed by one filter that sorts them into a folder and another that marks them as read, you need to check 'continue processing with other filters' on the options tab of the filter that's encountered first. -- Groetjes, Roelof ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
