Hmmm. It's true that list messages contain the header:
Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
However, when you configure a filter to search
String: <search string>
Source: Sender
Presence: Yes/No
the filter actually searches the From header. The From header isn't
altered by the list server, so it contains the names and e-mail
addresses of the original senders. Your filter should be working.
Be sure to place the filter above that of your regular list filter. One
reason the filter will not work is when it is below another filter that
matches the message. The message is therefore being filtered to the
TBUDL folder before it reaches your kill-filter.
