G'day Allie,
Saturday, June 14, 2003, 10:07:43 PM, you wrote some very useful advice. Bill and Joel also provided some valuable guidance which I also appreciated. Thanks guys. Unfortunately I found that the kill filter failed to work in the real world (as opposed to testing on old messages already downloaded) because I was basing it on the person I wanted to block being listed in the "Sender" string. It appears that all TBUDL list mail comes with the "Sender" being [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than from the individual member so of course the filter doesn't work. Using the alternative locations of Subject/Text/Kludges/or Anywhere had the undesired effect of filtering out any message which mentions the target person's name in any context which wasn't my desire. It looks like it isn't as simple or easy as I thought to set up a simple kill filter, but at least I had fun trying. The immediate need for the filter has now passed, but if you have any alternative suggestions I would love to hear them. I really do love using The Bat! as there is a never ending range of extra functions to explore and experiment with, and frequently I find that I can set up something to meet my exact needs (unlike that MS stuff which always assumed that I wanted to do it their way <GRIN>). Thanks again for your assistance, -- Bob Mo��is Sunday, 15 June 2003 Using The Bat! v1.62r on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
