rg>> With the new string the the filter does nothing. Any message with SPAM

IAW> Going back to your original message I notice that you use the word

In the sorting office screen where you set up the filters I have

String   = \[SPAM\]
Location = Subject
Presence = Yes

I do not see anything that says either "contains" or "matches"

Thx
