What if you are member in some mailing lists with high volume traffic? Mail is sorted to the specified folder by the filter, but I'm not interested in all messages. Scoring could help these situations GMM> From match "aol.com" score -10 > > If this is a friend, you don't want to score him down. If you want to > weed out spam, this won't help. I know.

Well, there are mailing lists that contains huge volumes of messages but not one of these is spam. There the scoring system could save the day. I receive 1500-2000 mails daily and neither one of these mails are spam. To manage this volumes mail filters are not enough. I read about "colour groups", "folders" etc, I used them aleready but no one can match the powerness of scoring. -- That is not dead which can eternal lie, yet with strange aeons even death may die ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
